HarryRenault quoted me £155 + vat a month to cover inspections paid by D/D.
That is £1860.00 +vat a year, yours will cost about £1256.66 inc vat.
Think I better talk to them again, see what you get for £155.00 a month, if it includes servicing
it may be worth it.
If it’s our normal contract -
All safety inspections + grease + check/top up levels.
M1 Service x 1
M3 Service x 1
Take for MOT test ( I think that includes the MOT fee as well)

Thanks Steve
That sounds worth it then, money well spent.
After 9 years being the fabled owner driver Iv learned much about how the world works, I used to believe if someone told you something they ment it, This is not always the case, If money is tight now, it’s only gona get tighter, There is gold in them there hills but the road up there is full of bandits!,
Hi Strawgalore
Yes you are so right, been at it since 1980, had some good times 80’s to early 90’s
but now its all about fuel, got some good paying traction work but no use if your
getting 6.5mpg in big flash motor, get 8.5mpg and its another £270 to £280 on your
profit per week.
No more pedal to the metal, gently does it, save that fuel.
Not wishing to sound like a killjoy but with what your saying keep yourself employed. As an owner driver you are more liable to come across half wits who think you owe them and people that can break you by giving you rubbish loads.
Good topic fellas! Just two things missed. Road tax and drivers cpc.
