    company car v own car

    Could anyone dumb down the pros & cons of a contractor having a co. car under their ltd company v. their own car? Or point me in the right direction.

    How do I calculate which is the best financial option?

      Usually but not always. If you have a newish, smallish car or a double cab pickup they are quite often better owned through the company.

          If I don't actually need a car to work, can the company still own a car and let me use it?
