Hi there, just wondering what I should expect to be reimbursed for business related travel, using my 2004 Holden Barina? Travel will be under 5,000ks per year.

There is no hard and fast rule about what you can expect, as this is a negotiation between you and your employer.
The AA calculation for a 1.4 litre car is 53.2c per km, however this is based on a vehicle at the 3rd year of age where a significant component is depreciation. As your car is 9 years old, the value is lower so depreciation is less, therefore your true running cost will be quite a lot lower than 53.2c per km.
