Tables of Operating Costs to include --Articulated vehicles-2-ton capacity and passenger vehicles—buses-11seater capacity?"
We have commenced operating a MiniArtic and would like to see costing for this, and for a Martin Walter 11-seater luxury minicoach, shown in your tables.
Ait is always difficult to decide what to
include and what not to include in the Tables bearing in mind the confines of space. We think on balance that the vehicles you mention would hardly warrant inclusion on the score of popularity.
The minimum size of passenger vehicle included in the Tables is the 14-seater and the demarcation between an 11-seater and a 14-seater as it affects total operating costs is relatively small.
To obtain similar figures for the vehicles you operate you should follow the general principles of the Tables, substituting your own figures gained through experience. We always advocate that the Tables should only be used for guidance: where you can substitute your own figures to obtain costs accurate in relation to your own operations, so much the better.
