You couldn't make it up (new L322 + D4 content)

Long storey short.

Made redundant in Oct. Therefore my lovely Disco 4 (on finance) had to go.

Wifes employers offer me a job 11th Jan, so I start straight away. Disco gets sold.

Based at home, so last Sat I buy Zebedees LPG L322. Fantastic car, love it. Perfect for infrequent use with the odd long trip.

This morning the people we work for called us in.

Would we like an F Pace or an E Pace. Blue or red? Can have either in a week.

They apologise for small choice, but in 12 months when it gets replaced, I can choose whatever.

So now I have to sell the loveliest RR L322, within a week of buying it Big Cry

PS. Went for the E Pace, purely based on the fact its a top of the range HSE with almost every extra.

I know! They are the best people EVER.

"My cars are your cars" was the reply when mine was broken and I wanted to go somewhere. So that was a difficult choice, Full Fat SA Autobiography (supercharged) or a RR Sport SVR. Boith 69 plates Shocked

At least here that would automatically be a gift, the tax man would come after the company and the employee and you’d have to pay the real (fair market value) of the vehicle lease... Mr. Green

Congratulations on the job Thumbs Up

Seriously - check this with the tax man. Trust me - you don’t want a huge bill when the P11Ds are submitted after the tax year end.
