Hi,
I am just about to replace my company car (Lexus IS hybrid) and was thinking about a S70D. Its just about affordable on my scheme - even though the BIK tax will crank up over the next few years. I would stay with the standard spec i.e black S70D with maybe the pano option. Any advise/comments from company car drivers appreciated - about the car or the finance/tax implications.
I am in warwick and travel to london/manchester/southampton for work so 200-220 mile round trips - which I am told are do-able with careful driving. There are supercharger stations on my route so i do have the option for a quick boos if needed.
I have a test drive this saturday and if that goes well i will get a lease quote early next week and hopefully 'press the order button'.

2 quick questions
1. does anyone have a rough idea of how much it costs in electric bill to charge one of these overnight using standard rates?
2. has anyone figured out how to claim mileage rates for business trips as it seems like the government make no allowances for using electric cars for business.
