How about:
Price per litre x 4.54 = price per gallon (ppg) ppg / mpg = price per mile |

You need to convert the litres to gallons I think it is 4.4 litres per gallon then go from there.

£1.39 per litre x 4.54 = £6.31 per gallon
Car does 38 mpg £6.31/38 £0.16 per mile in fuel. |

Calculate the cost per gallon by multiplying the cost per litre by 4.546. Divide this number by the MPG to get the cost per mile. |

Cost per mile usually isnt just your fuel though, just to toss you a curve ball.

my '98 mk4 golf tdi won't depreciate anymore than it has already. if anything it'll start to gain value in 10-15 years purely because it's a golf hehe

yeah mine says 62mpg on paper, but I can only just manage 52mpg over a full tank
620 miles on 53ltrs of fuel. 2ltrs left in the tank when I filled up. |

A series of standardised test cycles are run, everyone runs the same ones, then the results are used to get a series of "official" fuel consumption figures. (and CO2 figures as well) The reason very few people get anywhere near the "official" figures is that they don't drive exactly as per the standardised test cycle. |

What the hell is it, a Bentley!? (did you actually mean 0.66p or £0.66?)
My R32 only works out at about 20-25p per mile on fuel, that's not that bad really |

0.10p a mile for me
|
#18
