What is required to be an Owner Driver

I am seriously considering becoming a Owner Driver. But I am hoping someone out there can inform me as to what I actually have to do/require to become an owner driver.

I have been quoted £1646.66 plus VAT for a Scania 6x2 420bhp Topline High Cab taxed at 44tonnes this includes all maintenance servicing, MOT preparation and submission for test. Based on 100,000miles pa on a three year contract.Excludes glass and tyres

Boy them Scanie’s are dear Mike,
I got quoted £1050/month over 5 years for a new ERF High roof sleeper with 420 ■■■■■■■■■■ tronic,6x2,sliding jost 5th,PTO and complete full R+M, I’ve just to buy the tyres over the 5 year term everything else is in the deal.This was for doing 120000 km/year but I think possibly getting a quote for nearer 150000 km/year would be better.
