MuckleJoannie Posted July 31, 2013 Report Share Posted July 31, 2013 company cars that can be clamed back on the tax maybe? You can set 100% of the cost of certain 4 door pick ups against your taxable income if you are self employed so that could be true. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

humptygrumpty Posted August 13, 2013 Report Share Posted August 13, 2013 A lot o folk wir wye wi pick ups, but all da eens I can think o hae crofts. What wye can you tell if dir crofters or no as dey drive past? If it has an orange beacon that constanly flshes whether on the main road , or on the gas plant it will be a total / petrofac pickup. They havent quite grasped how to work the beacons switch yet.......and judging some of them ive met....they never will. Non beaconed pickups could be crofters....ones that look like theyve pranged into a halfords shop and come out wi every extra glued on are usually the posing wannabe's.

Ghostrider Posted August 13, 2013 Report Share Posted August 13, 2013 Them that blind you from the reflection off all the chrome everytime the sun is out are the posers. Ones that actually do work come with added gutter, sharn or site stoor/claag which dullens their lustre a tad. humptygrumpty 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
engineer21 Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 surely nothing wrong with having a nice looking car....be it a pick up or any other kind! plenty of folk wi people carriers who only have a 2 or 3 person family! or is there just some jealousy on here?
