Company car tax

Probably clutching at straws, but here goes....

If you have a company vehicle (van), which you can use for personal use, and you receive benefit in kind (can use fuel card for personal use fuel), is there anything you can do to reduce tax liability?

Don't use it personally other than insignificant private use.

'Insignificant' other private use means that the employee's private use of the van in addition to ordinary commuting is very much an exception to normal usage and only lasts for short periods on an occasional and irregular basis. For example:
making a slight detour to buy a newspaper on the way to work counts as insignificant private use
an employee using a van to do their weekly shopping counts as more than insignificant private use - see the next section for the rules that apply in this case

Ive read this on gov.uk (I think). Its not possible for me to just use it for insignificant use....id have to buy a car, which is ultimately more expense and tax....which kind of defeats the point.

Pay for your private fuel.
