Just a little note, I put 100% work use in my van.
I've got a car that I take to work sometimes and I sometimes use the van to go to the tip or something.
It all balances out for me.
I've never had grief from the tax guys about it.
That's fine. However, it doesn't mean that another windie in a different part of the country doing exactly as you do will not have grief from a different tax assessor.
The Receiver does call it "Self Assessment." In other words, you pay tax on how you see your business performing. I was told at a Receiver interview once that what I see as self assessment, no matter how genuine, may not be the way the Receiver sees it if you should be audited.
A fellow windie in our town views it the same way as you do; he claims his van at 100% business as he uses his car for business related stuff, although he claims a tank of fuel every so often. Again, that's how he sees his business.
So for you, the rental payments on a lease van will be totally claimable.
