How do I claim my travel expenses against my allowance?

I'm a commission earner, started on the 1st December 2015. I have been using my car which I bought in July. I had a log book but some of my petrol receipts have faded a bit. When I started working as a commission earner my km where 6780, at the end of Feb they were 16956

I want to claim for travel allowance, should I use the deemed cost or the actual cost.
