    Can I employ my 13 year old?

    Not sure it's legal, but could you not just pay yourself a little more and use that to put in the ISA? That way your not really paying a 13 year old for work.. Officially

    Forced labour wins case.

    By doing it for charity what likely hood is there of a job at the end of it? Not likely, but then with a business? Why not. You are assuming it is just for large companies, this is not the case. But even if they were doing it just for charities I agree that it would be better than nothing

    SoGA Going round in circles !

    Not sure if this applies, but could the way the "dealer" promoted the car affect this contract? For example if it was in an auto trader advert and said things like: "Tax'd and MOT'd till Jan 2013" or "good little run around" or "perfect as a first car" or even "low tax and insurance group" then...
