How do I claim back VAT on a UK car?

The question

I'm thinking of purchasing a 'Vat Qualifying' car in the UK that is two years old. Do I get the money off the retail price from the dealer or how do I claim back the VAT element?

Hi Tim,

It depends on your business setup - most likely you'll have to pay the VAT element up front and claim it back, but I think the best person to talk to about this is your accountant and not us.
