Do I have to use my company car?

[SkinnyPete]

I have just accepted a job offer and the role comes with a company car although there is almost zero travel required.

Having never had a company car I didn't want to ask the question to my new employer for fear of looking stupid, but do I have to take it?

I have worked hard to buy my current Porsche and I have zero intention of using my new 530D with the exception of maybe tip runs.

So am I within my rights to reject it? The base salary is competitive enough so I do not expect them to top it up.

When I say rights, I just don't want the car.

You'll have to excuse me in the fact that I have very little knowledge of how the company car scheme works in the UK but no doubt it will end up costing me.

Given I do not want to stop driving my current car, I have no use for a company car and therefore don't want it.

I just want to be in possession of the facts before I approach it with my new employer.
