I think it’s a valid question and one I always wondered about, and asking different accountants and tax inspectors will give completely different answers ,so asking if anyone has had advice and used the allowances I think is a valid question.
The question should be is the Robinson rebuild 100% allowable in year 1 as normal maintenance under Uk tax law or is it a long term capital cost with draw down over a number of years
Give the guy a break he only wanted some advice on what other owners have done over the years
