If my business required me to drive around all day, I would like a more comfortable car and not just the base model.

LCT is crap anyway. Get rid of it on all cars from everywhere.

That's fair, if the difference comes from your salary.

Not a cent extra from tax regardless of whether you pay more of your own cash or not, that money is meant for society, and running your business, not for you. Leather seats and woodgrain are definitely not required for a business. You should feel fortunate you're allowed to claim you're car and depreciation/transport costs. There are many people paying more tax than small business owners that can't even claim public transport. That should already be good enough, but it's never enough for some.
