PETROL VEHICLE RUNNING COSTS
77
In looking at the costs on the previous page the
allowance of £75 per annum for repairs may appear
small at first sight, but when the comparatively high
figure for depreciation is taken into account and the
relatively low annual mileage, the item need not be
considered as unreasonable. Tyre allowance, however,
is probably on the low side.
Before concluding this chapter, mention should be
made of a new class of vehicle, namely, the six-wheeler.
It is likely that this type will be recognized legally as
a six-wheeled vehicle and not as a lorry and trailer,
and if this proves to be the case so that a maximum
load of, say, 7 tons can be transported at a legal rate
of 12 miles per hour, this type should have a good
future before it.
