Subject: Quick HR thing - novated lease

Hi Sarah,

I've been looking into a novated lease for the BYD Dolphin. It works out at $153/wk all-in and there's no cost or admin overhead for the business - Positive SP handle everything. I've attached a one-pager…

Or one of these in the same space

Any make, any model. Yes, including the second-hand one your mate's selling.
