For low users, taxis will probably work out a lot cheaper. (based on £10/week for a return trip to a supermarket) its only £500/year. start adding up running a car and its a heck of a lot dearer than that to run even a cheap runabout. (insurance min £200/year, tax another hundred, depreciation minimum £300/year for a nice car start thinking £1K+, servicing/tyres/exhausts/etc, petrol, MOTS)
Hehehehe that makes it sound cheap but isnt your initial outlay with a car is expensive but once u have it its at your disposal everyday, but £500 per year once a week return trip to the supermarket is outragious - once a week return . But i've no choice have i so buggered - i hate shopping as it is so going to hate it even more now
