    Are these classed as a car by revenue even though they are sold as a commercial vehicle. Has anybody got one as a company car and do you pay the full BIK?????

    I'd consider it as a Passenger vehicle, but I think it's a bit of a grey area and could fall either side of the fence. I just know that if you thought it was 5% BIK and someone from the Revenue figures out it should be 40% then you'll be a lot worse off than you thought.

    If it has more than two seats it's treated as a car.

    Full BIK applies to Crew/twin cabs.

    Are you doing much business miles ? I had a Mondeo as a company car a few years back and paid very little BIK, I was doing 25000 business miles a year.

    I've just been told a motorcycle with a side car is classified as a car by revenue :o
