how many km's a year is the average family car driven?

We do anything between 25,000 and 28,000 in ours - we have to do at least 25,000 as per our lease agreement or otherwise we pay fringe benefits tax, but we are 42km out of town so if we want to go anywhere we have to drive - I even have to drive to the mailbox LOL, so we do the k's easy enough.

No not a farmer, we just live in the country. It's an hour to drive to the shopping centre, about 2 hrs into Melbourne. We do have shops closer though, just nothing good. I wouldn't live anywhere else though

15 000 - 20 000 is average. I do just a tad under 40 000 (860 odd a week) and DH is closer to 60 00! We salary sacrifice tho, and have a very economical diesel! And no, we don't drive in our jobs, that's just to/from work!
