Special rules apply to older cars which do not have a CO2 rating.
Employee contributions for private use are deducted from the taxable figure.
Company vans are charged at £500 (£350 where 4 years or older) if private use is more than home-to-work travel. |

| Car fuel benefit |

|
| |
| The benefit of free fuel for private use in a company car is calculated using the same percentage as that used for the car benefit, applied to a standard figure of £14,400. The taxable amount is therefore between £2,160 (min.) and £5,040 (max.). |
