    well. I think you answered your own question. just a note, I would not get into any tie in on a company car. Just go with the polo. You'll have a obligation hanging over your head to stay with the company. Although it doesn't feel like you'd want to leave them and the jobs safe. It's better to have the freedom to walk away if you have to. If its just a utility vehicle for you with 5 seats I'd get the polo.

    I'm a little unsure what your saying, sorry. Just to clarify, you think that going company car obliges me to stay with the company? I think the 4 year tie in relates to changing vehicle or reverting back to an allowance. Should I resign, I dont think there will be any penalty. This is such a pain in the !!!! haha!

    Quote:....dissertation to write (and it’s been agreed this can be handed in as and when).

    Suggest that you check this statement again with the course office. In my long experience working in universities there is ALWAYS a final date for handing work in, even if there are extensions and you will need to hand in the dissertation otherwise you will fail the degree. Check with your prospective employer that the job is not dependent upon you holding a degree.
