    Vehicle leases - good news for a change.

    Well, finally got to speak to the leasing company at the Australian bit of my employer today, and seems good news all round. Not only are they happy to buy my D3 and lease it back to me (and the tax savings we've worked out on the running costs are nice enough, without the interest form banking their cheque for the duration of the leas) but they'll also happily do a second lease on a Defender, and let me buy all manner of toys for it getting the tax benefits from that too.

    Of course, now I just have to find a Defender that's less than 4 years old at a local dealer for sensible money...so maybe not all good news.

    See if they will do a sale and lease back for your current D110 - I have my Rangie / D110 and the misses Scooby on leases!!!

    All depends on your leasing company and any company policies, but you dont need to buy from a dealer either - my 2002 D110 was bought privately.

    Car must be under 4 years old at time of taking the lease, and under 8 years old when the lease finishes, so my 110 is out by several years!!

    They will let me buy private, but with all the reports and stuff they want, I wouldn't have the time to sort it out.

    You should be able to the same stuff assuming you are self employed as a ceiling fixer.
    You just need to talk to a decent financial adviser,IF THERE IS SUCH A THING
    Worth looking into!!!

    I get more back in tax by paying it off myself as long as I renew(Vehicle) every 5 years the depreciation doesnt get to the point of not being worth the claim
