Can anyone point me to an authoritative source for the answer to this question.
Can a sole trader, engaged in providing professional services, who is registered for VAT, claim back the VAT on diesel or petrol used in a motor vehicle.
The vehicle costs are deducted from income tax at 75% (25% being considered personal use).
I know what I think the answer is, but cannot find any definitive source. Thanks
Thanks for that Joe, it is not quite what I had understood, but you definitely appear to be correct.
You cannot claim vat back if the car is petrol, you can if its diesel, (in proportion to business use) even if it is a diesel car not a commercial vehicle.
