Can someone give me an indication of the $/km to charge my employer for the use of my car (Audi S6 2004 V8 ) on company time
Cheers

As we've said here many times before, we calculate running costs at betwee three and five years of a vehicle's age so it's always difficult to establish a reliable running cost for a vehicle of this age without keeping every receipt and carrying out a vehicle specific running cost. This is due to the fact that depreciation is the biggest single factor to running a vehicle and at 10 years of age, the vehicle has already depreciated significantly.
Also, any negotiation between employer and employee is to be negotiated between the parties, however the AA running costs are often used as a starting point.
FYI, had this vehicle been 5 years old our calculation would be $1.09 per km.
