In the detail of the October budget, the government announced significant changes to the way double cab pick ups would be treated for taxation from 6th April 2025 onwards.
Firstly, we’d like to assure you that we currently have sufficient stock for a large number of customers who can act quickly to update their vehicles before this date, thus avoiding the changes.
The brief detail is that pick-ups when used for business will be reclassified as passenger vehicles from 6/4/2025 – however, any in current ownership PLUS THOSE BOUGHT BEFORE THIS DATE will still be classified as commercial vehicles with the associated tax benefits until 05/04/2029.
This will mean the monthly BIK will go from approx £120 to approx. £620 for a 40% tax earner.
The current first year 100% write down allowance will revert to 20%
Vospers have most models and colours in stock for immediate delivery, or on the way to us, so you need not be affected by this change but only if you are able to act quickly and update your Ranger whilst there are remaining vehicles.
Demand for used Rangers is still healthy and we welcome these and other pick-ups in part exchange.
These rules will also apply to pick ups brought as used vehicles of which we currently have many in stock.
