    Just dropping into this....I intend to get a company car, leased. M3LR. To get the referal free charger miles, it can be added after, or needs to be done at time of order?

    Find out how much it costs to charge your Tesla in the UK, take 5!

    Yeah, works a treat. Hope to keep updated on that when (if) I get my M3. Looks like if i can use Octopus GO more or less all the time, I can run it fairly cheaply and get the 4p PM off the business.

    When to order? Existing car goes back mid-Feb

    Well the company car lease figures are in...just doing my spreadsheet now and double checking the figures before I submit them. It is kinda tight. A few variables for the boss to think about as I take a fully expensed 330e now, but intend to drop to a 4p a mlle claim back on the electric M3...

    Delivery day - Collection or Home Delivery ?

    I'm in the process of trying to get a company M3. I kinda assumed they would not allow it to be delivered. As I live just outside Brum it wasnt an issue for me really.

    Dashcam

    Reading this with interest as I am trying to get a M3 with work. I run a dashcam now and it has saved me a few times on none fault accidents and reports to companies for near accidents. I (wrongly it seems) assumed the same, it was recording all the time and I could lose one of the leads in the...

    Model 3 as a company car

    Did they not take into account running costs over the lease?

    Model 3 as a company car

    Mileage. Well I guess on a good year, 70/30 split, work/private. Probably more when I am busy. Work give me a All Star card, and I pay the tax benefit for both private and work fuel. I will not likely do that going forward. They can pay me the 4p a mile rate for work only miles. The savings on...

    Model 3 as a company car

    Yeah, previous Gen 330e. I have asked our lease guys to go away and coe back with lease costs. I have already started a rather massive speadsheet! Haha....he can go anywhere for a price. So the basic principal, is 330e (old) v 330e (new) v M3. 20k mileage. 3 years. I have used a few different...

    UK Company Car

    Oh! Ok, see, that is why I am on here. I do have a fully expensed 330e. So maybe £600 savings per year?

    UK Company Car

    Basically the business I work for. I have to show in plain ££ that it will not cost them more to take the M3 over 3 years, 20k miles, than it does now. That is lease and running costs. BIK is not relevant, that helps me, not them. As for distance, yep, I do quite a few journeys over 200miles...

    OK, got it. I will look into that a bit more once the time comes. Just need to sort of the M3 first.

    Octopus Smart Meter Experiences

    Do you need the smart meter to get on the cheap night time rate, the 5p a KW one? I have Octopus, but as I havent even got my Tesla yet, I have not looked into that side of things

    Model 3 as a company car

    The employer. I know the carbon footprint argument is strong, especially as I work for a company that seriously throw that out to thw world. The 330e was a half way house a few years ago, I knew that. We actually mft the EV charge points, and sell a LOT of them. The bigger ones for Jag, etc are...

    Model 3 as a company car

    I think that is where I am heading too. Just doing the sums on 4ppm. With Octopus cheap nightime deal, its good. Not so great elsewhere. I am even looking at the local Aldi now for a top up when I can. I run a fully expensed 330e now, so I am doing the sums. What I lose in tax should cover it...

    Model 3 as a company car

    Do any of the company car drivers get a fuel card, on previous cars, and now use something similar for electric (fuel)? Mine is fully expensed and I am trying to work out how to get the costs back without resorting to expenses, which I assume is capped at 4p PM by HMRC? Tax wise, I am just...

    UK Company Car

    Nice one, posted on the UK group too. Standard tax next year is 1%, which is amazing, 2% the year after. Not sure about fully expensed cars yet, to see if I get taxed again on private fuel. What is the cost of petrol for a 330e over 20K miles? Well that is kinda hard to work out. Offically it...

    Model 3 as a company car

    Afternoon all. I am just doing a financial justification on a 330e (current car) v a T3 (next to be ordered I hope). Just wondered if anyone had an experience in doing this as a company car.With fully expensed cars, can you claim back 100% of the fuel (electric)? 20k a year in mileage, 3 years...
