[Closed] Company car advise

I am looking to start with a company that doesn't supply a company car but pays a car allowance.

I have never had a car allowance before always a company supplied vehicle what are the benefits/pitfalls of such a scheme please?

need to clarify with the company what vehicles are allowed as it may allow me to have something different to the usual rep mobiles.

so in that case what car should I look at thinking estate versions of A6/5 Series/Skoda Superb/Chrysler 300
