  1. Bet I'd be better at this than you 😆 735 K vues · 4,6 K réactions | Guy Nails Foot Dancing Arcade Game |... WWW.FACEBOOK.COM This guy's footwork is 🔥🔥 Viralvideouk
  2. Most old folk will be too proud to go cap in hand and most will not know how to do it. Claiming credits or benefits would feel wrong I suspect. Those scrounging shits already on it will already know what where when and who on speed dial.....
  3. Tanks full of shit. No better way than dropping it out. Drain it through a filter into a drum and then hot steam pressure wash the bugger out! Drain it and make sure dry as poss then Diesel swill then refit
  4. My two motors do approx 5-7k a year each and I service them once a year. Sod all this long service interval crap. Oil and filter is cheap enough
  5. Just glad my accountant has been putting me off going ltd for years now 😆 I'm never lucky with anything
  6. Spoke to my accountant today and he said that as a sole trader the company car thing doesn't apply.... Going forwards if I swap my 4x4 dc pickup in for another, I cannot reclaim the vat nor 100% of the purchase only a measly 6% or so.... (after april) So it would seem if you wanted to change you need to do before April so can allow the 100% through your books. After April they're not worth diddly.... and not something you would buy again. If you don't change your motor you can continue as you are especially if you have already reclaimed the vat and allowed all your capital allowances against it....
  7. Morning all, knackered here. Why did Monday come round so fast? Gears in the truck and chipper on. 3 degrees outside. Just walked dog and sat down for 2nd brew before out the door to work. Roll on Xmas for some real time off 😀
  8. Exactly... my accountant always deducts 10% of all motor expenses to go down as personal
  9. When you look on gov website it talks about rules before Apr 2025 and purchase before and after... If purchased before you can run on old rules till you sell, lease is up or Apr 2029... Old rules are.... a dc pickup with a payload of 1000kg is a van.... below this is a car.... if you put a canopy on weather metal, fibreglass etc these are classed as approx 45kg and drops your payload below the 1000kg thus becomes a car.... So possible ok till 2029 but no canopy on the rear. EIM23150 - Car benefit: double cab pickups - HMRC internal manual - GOV.UK WWW.GOV.UK
  10. Not really. The dc pick up is a jack of all trades master of bugger all. When you work 6 days a week 60-70hours doesn't leave much time for much. Also the Mrs can drive if we go out on Sundays 😆
  11. So your saying that even a small company with a dc pickup in their fleet will now have to pay more tax as though it's a company car?
  12. I nearly bought the Mrs a clean 56 plate few years back... 630 road tax per year 😮 left it
  13. Pretty sure in the last few years you could near enough fully allow all capital down for tax... hopefully mines already been 100% put through 😆
  14. Age is but a number 😆
