8.5p a mile would be ok for a diesel car but a bit low for a petrol car. I suppose it depends on if you knew what the rate was when you chose to have a company car rather than cash allowance if available, and whether you could have chosen a diesel car rather than a petrol one.

A diesel car fuel bill is just as high as a petrol one with the massive dfference in fuel price.

We alo have a company car and have to pay all the fuel and claim back at a rate of 20p a mile for busiess miles, we just about break even a that rate.

You're not right, bootman.

The fuel price difference is around 15%; the fuel economy difference is a lot more than that.
