Company Cars

Hi all, slowly coming round to the thought of BR now. Although currently unemployed, my next job is likely to come with a car allowance of c£5k. Will this be deemed excessive, even though described in my contract as car allowance? I am also likely to lose 40% of this in income tax, can I make extra claims for car insurance, tax, diesel etc...?

many thanks

Hi

The car allowance - after tax - should be exempt from an IPA calculation as it is in lieu of a company car. Most companies will insist on the car being X years old etc etc etc.

you may receive fuel as expenses but no doubt the car allowance is to include an element for maintenance, tax insurance etc as well
