Just guess-timating...Did about 32000km in the first year, around 8.9 L / 100km. So 2848 litres. :o

Multiply by an average of say 1.25 a litre and I paid $3560 for gas last year. :( And today I gassed it up at 1.45 or so for 91.

Much less this year. :) But that just means less money to Exxon and more to the insurance cos. :-\


That is after income tax money as well. Pre-tax and deducted as expenses is somewhat less hurting on the wallet.

8.5L/100km * 34000km / 30mo * 12mo/yr = 1156L/yr

I like how you did it; hope you don't mind me copying you.

9.3L/100 kms * 5,600 km / 5.5 mo * 12 mo/year = 1136 L/yr

I use about 20L per week, = 1040L/year. Thank God I have a short commute, less than 10 minutes. At about 13,000 km/year, I figure I'm getting about 12.5km/L or around 32MPG combined city/highway driving.
