Emissions rating (CO2g/km)
This is the new Carbon Dioxide exhaust scoring system introduced by HM
Government to favour more environmentally friendly vehicles. In most cases,
cars manufactured from 1st Jan 1998 have a published emissions rating, which
you will need for us to calculate your solution correctly. If you do not have
this information you may obtain it free of charge from the
Vehicle Certification Agency.
Manufacturer's list
price:
This is not the amount the car cost to buy. You are taxed on the manufacturer's
published price (before discount) of the car at the time of sale. The list
price includes VAT, car tax, delivery charges, the published price of any
manufacturer's optional extras and the cost of non-manufacturer accessories
(unless purchased at a later date at a cost of under £100). If you have made a
contribution to your employer towards the cost of the car deduct this amount up
to a maximum of £5,000
Registration date:
The date of first registration of the car as per your vehicle registration
document ("log book") V5.
Engine Size:
The cubic capacity of the engine contained within your vehicle.
You should include here all of the annual costs of running the car for example
servicing and repair bills, insurance, MOT, road fund licence but excluding
money spent on petrol. All expenses should include VAT where applicable.
Diesel or petrol
Does your car meet Euro IV emissions standards?
Your diesel car's taxable benefit may be lower if it meets Euro IV emission
standards.
Business
mileage:
Private mileage:
Please enter your anticipated annual business and private mileage. The Inland
Revenue usually consider that travel between your home and your employers'
place of business is private mileage.
Is fuel provided for private use?
Your diesel car's taxable benefit may be lower if it meets Euro IV emission
standards.If your employer pays for, or reimburses you for, the cost of fuel
used for private purposes you should click on "Yes". This is the case even if
private mileage has been funded by your employer only on odd occasions. You
should click on "No" only if no private use fuel is provided or if you are
required to, and have, made good the cost of fuel for your own motoring.
Are you a basic or higher rate taxpayer? (%)
Please click on the rate of tax which you normally pay on your taxable income. If you are a basic rate taxpayer that is currently 20%. If you are a higher rate taxpayer the current rate is 40%. If you are very close to becoming a higher rate taxpayer because of the level of your income (before car benefits) you should click on higher rate.
