Many people don't know what the actual out of pocket costs are for owning a car. If you are a two car household, you will be able to weigh up the cost benefits or deficits of being a one car household when you

assess what the out of pocket expenses for an extra car really cost.

Although there may be cost benefits associated with rethinking our car use, there are also health and environmental benefits to be had by using alternative means of transport.

Take the time to consider the alternatives available to you.

Car Cost Calculator

To estimate your out of pocket costs of running a vehicle, follow the simple instructions on the following pages. You will need to look back over the bills you have paid in the last 12 months and to keep a record for a short time of fuel costs and kilometres travelled.

Example ? How to calculate your fuel costs per kilometre:

500km
