I never got questioned about private use on the van. But they did have thousands of vans, so not really sure if it was flagged up. I just got told to take the chip out and the SIM card and drive. So I did.
 
I love my job now and I have been doing it for 4yrs now. It is a lot harder than i thought it would be and I am still waiting for that one easy job. But, I don't think there is such a thing in this trade. Always getting quotes wrong, something always crops up that you didn't think of. airlocks here, washers that don't seal without silicone, changing bath taps. The list is endless. I do like the freedom it brings but not the stress of worrying where the next mortgage payment is going to come from

Just be a bit wary on the insurance side of things. If you're not covered for private use and have an accident you could be done for driving without insurance which can give a driving ban. It can also b construed as gross misconduct and lead to instant dismissal.

When I was with eaga a few guys got caught using the vans for private use and were goonered.
