Hi, I know this is a bit vague but I was wondering if there was a way to estimate the running costs of a 12 or 16 seat minibus. I am looking to maybe run a shuttle service and need to set ticket prices. Can you help at all?

As you say, it is a little vague, but assuming it's a diesel vehicle up to 3.0 litre capacity, the running cost would be 81.6c per km. Hopefully this gives you some rough guide.
