Oh. BTW. Its leased to give me the maximum tax advantage as an
allowable
business expense. Even more practical& intelligent.

So what do you drive the rest of the time? I do hope you are not
fiddling your taxes and are paying the appropriate benefit in kind tax
for private use of a business supplied vehicle and fuel.

Vauxhall Corsa owned by my missus.

So you're halfway to obtaining your dream of being a *true cyclist*,
as defined by Doug. You don't actually own a motor vehicle.

I wouldn't say halfway even. If he regularly and mainly uses a car at
all then he is just a "pretend cyclist". After all, we all know what
motorists think of cyclists don't we. This newsgroup is evidence
enough.

What about me Doug, am I a true cyclist?


More to the point is that Doug is not a 'pure/true cyclist' due to the form of transport he uses.
