How grumpy can you be? £41.55 better off and he's still complaining. 

I can tax and insure the van for less than the insurance on corsa (monthly figures) and have £20 odd quid extra

All the work vans I ever had seemed to have high road tax according to the figure on the tax disc (ask your dad). I expect this is because a lot of them are expected to be commercial vehicles so the owner isn't really bothered what the VED costs as they'll just claim it back. Probably a bit of a cash cow for the gubberment that most first users aren't fussed about.

You can't claim VED back. Are you getting confused with VAT?

You can offset it against tax, but then if you use the van for personal use there are BIK implications. 

That was what I meant, sorry for the confusion. If you are able to claw back costs for things like VED as a business  you probably don't notice the cost, but a private owner would.
