Vibroplant Ltd v Holland (HM Inspector of Taxes): CA 1980

The use of the buildings for servicing and repairing the plant which Vibroplant wished to hire out, was an essential part of Vibroplant’s business of plant hire operators and part of their trade. Although not required to decide the point, the court expressed a view as to whether the repair and servicing of the plant might constitute part of the business. He accepted that that activity might fall within the definition of ‘part of a trade’.
