Default Company Cars

Given the squeeze on our disposable income and the amount of Benefit In Kind company car tax that we have to pay nowadays, would you be willing to pay more for a desirable car than the standard fleet choices normally offered?

Say that instead of taking a Mondeo, Vectra or Laguna, you were allowed to upgrade to a Mercedes C Class, for instance.
