Your partner isn't called Elliott per chance?

Leasing would be my option for now just to keep chest in a safe and paying monthly I guess. But am not fixed on that.

Whose chest are you keeping in a safe?

You can buy or lease a scooter from the company – for tax this will be treated the same as buying/leasing a motorbike for the company which (for tax) is better than buying/leasing a car.

Can you clarify if you would be buying or leasing? Then I will be able to outline the relevant tax implications.

I think there are some different rules for a company motorbike / scooter.

If this was in the right forum, an accountant might answer it.

but this is something I am meant to look into for a while, so very simple question:
- how to buy a scooter on company account ?
- is it called a business lease ?
- can I just turn to a reseller and they will help me with paperwork ?

thank you !
