How much to run a newish 3.5 tonner per mile?

[lisan01]

Just trying to work out costs and wondered how it would cost to run an 08 plate Renault per mile

The AA provide 'official' costings for running cars which actually break down the expense down to per mile of motoring: http://www.theaa.com/motoring_advice/running_costs/petrol2010.pdf

Does anyone know of a similar site or table for vans?

I have an 08 Vauxhall Movano (they are exactly the same van).

Mine is a 2.5L CDTI, it does circa 35mpg. I find it really economical, even with the horses on board.

Very economical! My current 4 x 4 pulling the old rice is lucky to get 20mpg! Also costs a fortune to drive to work and back daily too.

My 08 Citroen gets 30-35mpg with horses and tack on board. MOT and servicing is about 200 per year and tax is 150ish I think.

I love mine
