two years, 70,000 miles......total cost per mile?

with the following in the mix

Council charges (£600)
RFL (£300)
Insurance (£3300)
Repairs and service (£2000)
Fuel (£9000)
Tyres (600)
Depreciation (£2500)

it comes out at 26p per mile overall

I reckon to collect in fares between £1.00 to £1.20 for each mile showing on the mileometer but I do only drive part time. Does 70000 miles in 2 years produce an adequate living after expenses?

thats LOADED miles, wheras my calcs are for EVERY mile

so if jobs dont hook up and i drive to base after each one, that £1 per mile becomes 50p per mile wheras my 26p a mile costs are per every mile, so 50% of the take is spoke for

70,000 miles or 35,000 per year x 24p/mile = £8750 a year......pre tax of course
