For those that travel a lot of business, is 45p per mile for the first 10,000 miles, 25p per mile thereafter, reasonable?
-
It's what HMRC recommend. This is applicable to when you have company car in my case.
I travel in my own car, get 0.35 per mile up to 8000 miles, anything above that they pay 0.45 per mile and I'm now on 17000 miles in last 8 months and I drive a petrol :sick:

This is exactly what I get for using my private car doing work's miles.
Which is good, because I am going up to Warrington tomorrow. Slowly. Taking small sips of petrol as I go... And making some money for being sat in my car watching the world go by.

LOL - driving is fine. Luckily I have a Mk3 so I get there without back, leg, shin and ankle ache... :smiley:

So if a diesel is used it could be quids in!
-
I get 25p a mile.
Had to drive to Bedford which worked out at around 200 miles there and back. Got to claim near on £50, but because it's a derv it only used just over a quarter of a tank.

They might change the price they give you per mile if its a diesel, worth asking. Those figures are pretty standard and its what my company do. I get 18p a mile rather than the 45p but thats because I get a car allowance on top of it.
Anyway, yes, its reasonable.
-
27p a mile in my own car
-
I'm a Civil Servant and we get 40p per mile and its only gone up by 5p in the last year. Has been 35p per mile for the last 5 years. Doesnt rise with inflation sadly.
If i take a passenger in the car then I get 45p per mile :laugh:
-
45p is reasonable and what I think my company pay, though I've not put in a mileage claim for a few years :lipsrsealed: /facepalm
-
I used to have a company car and got 40p per mile and 25p after 10,000.
Now I get £1500 allowence amd 60p per mile....... :grin: last month 2100 miles :smiley:

Sounds like some of you are getting some pretty poor pennies!
You have to think about the ware and tare on the car, tyre's, service, insurance etc........ the price of fuel is a rip as we know!
and I hope your all letting your insurance know your useing your car for work~!
-

TBH I think your getting a pretty spectacular deal rather than others not getting a good one. To be given a company car AND to then be given 40p a mile is unheard of in my book. The 40p a mile is meant to be cover the wear and tear and insurance on a car, but seeing as its a company car non of the applies so quite how you got that deal Im not sure.
-
Its more of a car allowence, then millage on top, when covering 100k+ a year, after 3 years the cars worth nothing or has gone pop already, hence running a banger in to the ground every year.
We do have to fork out for wear and tear and insurance, mine being £344 a year and already on my second set of tyres from april :angry: the cars in my name, just a way round the system...

So they give you a car but you have to insure it and fix anything that goes wrong with and replace stuff with it? Sounds a bit of weird a complicated setup. I cant understand why you wouldn't just have a fully maintained lease seeing as you do so much mileage.
-
That's a weird setup, especially as anything over 45/25p a mile is taxable.
-
It's the one we all voted for in the end, funny enough we got the idea off one of our clients who do the same, a large one at that.. who supply lots water...
The cars then ours and we are responsible for it, and not classed as a compnay car?
Funny enough one of the guys got a Mk3 golf and shes coming up 320k now, 2 years she's lasted.

That must be a car allowance?? Not many company's allow cars past 5 years old even with an allowance. Who owns the car you or your company?? Seems a very strange set up having a MK3 as a company car !!!!
-
Where i work, it's based on what car you drive. I get 58p per mile. Just a shame
I don't do too much travelling (only 44-55 miles a month)

Im pretty sure he has a car allowance and he is just getting his knickers in a bit of a twist as to what he actually means.

We own the car, the log book is in our name.
I suppose it is a car allowance, but it's ours to run in to the ground, as above the named company, Wessex water do this to, you get a couple of grand a year for a car. it's yours to do as you please, you look after it, insure it, then run it in to the ground..
