It essentially is all vehicle running costs divided by the number of kms travelled annually.
To give you a very basic breakdown of the components involved, the costs include:
Fuel
Oil
R&M
Tyres
WoF
Registration
Insurance
Capital outlay (Cost + Interest)
Cost of depreciation

I refer you to my request yesterday re reimbursement of running cost. I received from you (2008)Diesel Car Costs
My question is do you have the same for this year and for petrol driven vehicles
