In the first of what, hopefully, should be an occasional series, I would like to present to you 'Pointless Tax Rules: Part One'.
The first pointless tax rule concerns reclaiming VAT on cars:
VAT can only be reclaimed on vehicles if there are no windows or seats in the rear.
Yup, you read that right. You can't reclaim VAT if you can see out of the back windows. Not that you would want to if there aren't any seats.
So that means lorries and, um, what else? Even most Ford Transits have back windows! Can someone link to a picture of a vehicle that isn't a lorry on which you can reclaim VAT, because, for the life of me, I can't think of one.
