Default What are the S2K Pence Per Mile costs?

Going with the theme of the moment - vehicle running costs

I have seen 55, 85 & 105 ppm. Obviously this is dependent on a few varying factors (age of car, insurance cost, normal driving speed, miles done per year, petrol choice etc)

But what would most people think is a good rate to work with?

I think the only way to lower these stupid fuel costs is to cut down on the car's use

I drive a 35 mile round trip to work =

For many people, the cost is down to your circumstances.

Just add up all your costs (insurance, finance, mot, fixes, warranties, tyres, fuel, road tax, servicing costs where you live etc.) and then calculate your mileage and divide by it.

for someone who owns their S, is older so cheaper insurance, has a reliable example, doesn't buy a warranty and doesn't get unlucky with breakages and doesn't drive tyres hard etc. their ppm is a lot less than the 18 year old who tracks the tyres all the time, is always in vtec, financed to the hilt, buys a warranty with all the get out clauses, has to fix all the uncovered problems......

I don't want to know!
I think I'll start crying if I found out... ignorance is bliss.
