Here's a good one for the discussion for all the truckers?? Did you know that a new tractor unit depriciate's at £1 an hour 24hrs a day 7 days a week for the first 5 years of ownership :shock:  :shock:

barnhill4x4:
My p38 has done 52p and hour for 24hours a day for the last 10 years!
 Work it out!!!! £50k new, ten years later about £5k value
 
  Somehow the Truck doesn't seem that bad seeing as it has probably earned its keep!

Boggert:
Ouch... Is make you wonder how anyone makes any money in transport what with fuel being a total rip off.

Lee_D:
Claim the VAT back on the depreciation. Thats why any one earning enough to pay tax always has a nice new car / van what have you.

Article in LRO on the matter last month.
