Hi there. Could you please tell me what rate I could reasonably expect to be reimbursed by a company, running my own vehicle (2008 Toyota Rav4) approximately 10,000km per year.

We calculate a 2.4 litre RAV4 to have a running cost of 79.1c per km, however this is calculated at the 3rd year of age so your 5 year old RAV4 would be a little less due to the lower value, therefore lower depreciation.
As far as what is reasonable for an employer to pay, this really comes down to a negotiation between the employer and the employee.
