how much does it cost you to get to work?

3 stops on the train, £5 a day equating to about 0.03% of standard. Sometimes I ponce a lift off of Borrish home so that lowers it. Hoping to get a car soon so actual travel will drop to about 25% of that but the cost of the car and running costs will mean it shoots up :(

Hmm about £40 a day in £ so % about 0.2% of my weekly.

Indeed. £40 for 0.2% calculates to £20,000 per week, or £1,040,000 per year. That's very impressive if true.

I cycle to work so just the cost of my bicycle since August 2013 => ~£20 /month (and decreasing every month).

110 miles there and back a day, £51 for monthly bus pass, £60 for trains a week, £75 for taxis a week, I only pay for the bus pass though.

0.7% but the commute time factors in...

Hold on, you're on about £80k and take the bus? Bugger that! I can't see how doing all those things is easier/simpler than driving!
 
4.16% if just on Diesel costs per month.

8.31% if I include diesel/Insurance/VED/Servicing.... obviously I need that to own the car in the first place.

No, because I have access to completely unlimited fuel, business /private / commute, - and I drive to a lot more places other than my commute. So like I say, difficult to break it down. If I decide to do a thousand miles around Europe for a laugh then my commuting cost per mile plummets. If I park the car on the drive and literally only use it to get to work then the costs per mile are higher (the BIK payment remains the same)

This would all go against your P11D, but I'm certain certain private mileage can cause you some issues.

I think your maths is a little out there.
 
I cycle, so it's cheap but not nothing,

Cost of bike depreciation, I have 2 that are only used for commuting.
Cost of parts, tyres, tubes, brakes, chains and gears, batteries for lights.
Cost of special clothing,
Extra cost of washing said clothing.

It probably comes to a fair bit, but I estimate I have saved aboout £1200 worth of petrol in the last 4 years, and not having to run 2 cars,
 
Approximately £20/ day so £100 a week = 9.375%

My travel costs are refunded as an expense so technically zero.
