    If you had a tax calculation done, it would show total pay plus BIK all added together as income then taxed.

    Is this fuel provided for a company car or fuel provided for you private car?

  • when you say you have BIK of £3852 I presume you have private use of your company car.

    The taxable amount is based simply on £16,900 multiplied by the same percentage derived from the CO2 figure and fuel type.

    theoretically in your case it is about 23% (£3852/£16900x100)

    As you are high tax payer you would pay £3852x40%=£1541. (it is like using about £30 (1541/52) fuel a week.).
