Got an interim role doing 500 miles a week for 6 months, have a disco 4. Not sure sticking 12k miles on the disco makes sense either in ( expensed) cost or depreciation.

So get a car to cover it or accept impact on disco ?

If car, what? Will put fuel and mileage allowance thru ltd company.

Worth it or too much hassle? I'm in the latter camp.

Day rate is very good so will stand some depreciation on the disco.

I'm sure I've seen this asked before but can't find the answer. Apologies for posting if someone else can find easily.

Budget a few k. This is more should I? And then what? Few threads on what .

Role may last longer but could be back to train after 6bminths when I'll get shot if I buy.

Mike

Ps thanks in advance Ph experts

Any car transaction will lose money.

I'd say between buying at a dealer price and selling privately it's about £2k.

Divide by 6 months.

Do nothing - much cheaper smile

I was thinking maybe a cheap private golf, but tend to agree anyway.
