Doing the maths

nov-passesI’ve now put my money where my mouth is and shelled out the $210 for the Monthly Discovery Pass for November.

That’s $10.00 a day for the month (21 weekdays in November).

Add about four hours of Cityhop car use a month, and that averages out to $13.00 a day.

I’ve figured owning and operating the car amounts to $14.88 per weekday. (or $11.03 without capital costs of $5000 every five years)

Annoyingly, because I will still have the car, even though it’s not going anywhere, it’s still going to cost $7.56 per day during November in registration, depreciation, and insurance.

So, if this works out, I’ve got a pretty good incentive to sell my car. This is probably not a good moment to admit I may be slightly emotionally attached to my car :(
