I simply dont believe the person who claims tax, mot and insurance is less than 500 a year - or is that third party only? leaving a huge uninsured cost

Why? Some cars are low tax and older drivers may have low insurance. Mine is around £650 for a car that's not cheap to tax and I've been driving for about 14 years which isn't much compared to a lot of folk.

I'll repeat:

£7 per day it cost me to own a 53 plate Mondeo estate, including all costs and depreciation i.e. £2,555 a year.

If you run a car, I hope you still commute by bike

I do as much as I can. It is 20 miles and I have yet to do it more than 4 times a week 🙂
