You may join the scheme at any time, and salary sacrifice will commence in the month the car is delivered. In most cases, the salary sacrifice will continue for the full time you have the car. If anything changes during this period, which could affect your eligibility for the scheme, please notify your HR representatives as soon as possible.
Please note that deliveries can take up to 12 months for factory orders, depending on the car.
Please note that there may be some state benefits that you are not entitled to because you have participated in the scheme. We are not responsible for any such impact, or for any effect participation in the scheme may have on your tax status in general.
