Directors and employees earning £8,500 or more a year are chargeable to income tax on an amount equal to the appropriate cash equivalent of the benefit of car fuel made available for private use by reason of their employment.

Table B applies where the car does not have an internal combustion engine with one or more reciprocating pistons, and accordingly applies to rotary engined cars.
