One bloke is about to have $5000 worth of repairs to 20 hail dents on his own car but thinks there is good value in buying a very heavily dented new car for his son that is $6000 cheaper than normal and doesnt seem to be able to compute that it wont be insured for what it would cost to repair, its not going to be worth much as a used car and could potentially be a pain to get registered. He reckons he can get it insured to cover any potential body problems that might come up in the future...LOL wut?! |

so what is the difference between a 'storm damaged repairable write-off' and a 'storm damaged economic write-off' ?

I have to buy 8 new utes for a job and am looking very seriously at the hail damaged hilux's. At the end of the day they are brand new, full manufacturers warranty, never been licensed. Because of our company insurance policy (it costs me the same to insure a 10 year old hilux as it does a brand new M3) insurance is simply not an issue. We also run a $5k excess so we fix our own minor fender benders.
The damage is not really massive. All the glass has to be replaced by the dealers. Savings are approx $6k over new. What it boils down to is do you want a mint BT50 mazda or a sligthly damaged hilux for the same money? In my book I would much rather have the hilux. Brendon

Hail is not such an issue for us because it is a company car so we get gst back and assuming we are making a profit we effectively get company tax off which is a lazy 30%. There are always plenty of cars around so if it takes a couple of months to get fixed that is not an issue either. Cheers Brendon

You don't get to claim the 30% company tax rate off a car as far as I know...
Only 18.5% (or is it 25% now) depreciation per year up to the luxury car threshold of $57,xxx.

[QUOTE=Kato;444110]You don't get to claim the 30% company tax rate off a car as far as I know...
QUOTE] Kato, only in terms of the repairs. i.e. if we make a profit of 30k a year that is subject to company tax but if the repairs come to $20k and we only have a profit of $10k then I only have to pay tax on the $10k. The depreciation does not matter so much as we would claim it regardless. Brendon
