Oh, dear. Well, that torpedoes the plan for the next lease to be a V8 Falcon. Truth be known, ending the lease will probably save me money in the longer term. Instead of changing vehicles every two years, I’ll quit the in-house lease, catch the train into work, and take home the truck when on call. Sure, the tax man takes more out of my wage. But I will pocket the surplus from the lease. The next effect will be a reduction in my expenditure on vehicles. Which is something I am sure the automotive industry and the present government wants.
