I do 40p a mile and charge it to my limited company as the vehicle is my own.

I do mine on % of total running costs.
Not saying it's the best way.  It's just the way I've always done it.
My van is my only vehicle.  I offset 85% of total running costs against the business as I do have some private use out of it.  This % also applies to loan interest that relates to the van and the same % of the capital allowance.
If I had a private car, it would be 100%.
