As we've said on this forum many times before, it's a little difficult to apply anexact cost for a vehicle of this age. We calculate running costs for vehicles at 3-5 years of age, where depreciation is a major factor. With a 9 year old vehicle, a good deal of depreciation has already taken place.
FYI, the running cost we calculate on a vehicle such as this (albeit, a newer vehicle) would be 78.8c per km. For this particular vehicle, as a guestimate, the real cost may be around 60c per km.
