I drive in everyday and it works out a hell of a lot cheaper than living there. 35 mile round trip, so i prob spend a fiver a day on petrol and bridge toll. Parking is free.

Also better than staying, my uni is a bit of a sausagefest and my gf stays in next village here so I still get laid, unlike any of mates that stay at uni

Don't need one, everywhere is walking distance away. I have no where to park it either... Also, I have a Youg Persons Railcard which makes trains dead cheap

i didn't bother takin mine last year so i sold it an haven't bothered buying one since and its saved me a fortune so far, even if i do have to put a bit of petrol in the parents cars when i use them.

If your in the city you find theres just no point in havin a car cos you've got buses an trains 2 get about an with a rail card etc. its pretty cheap.
