London Scottish guy based in Islington. In a great relationship for 19 years - CP ceremony December 07 - but looking for new friends and more variety in my life. Into great food, wine, good conversation (politics and social issues) and hunky men! Go to the gym a couple of times a week but not exactly what you'd call a gym bunny.

A topic from Vehicles & Transport: Cars

I'm thinking of getting rid of my car and signing up with a car club. I live in Central London and I only do about 1k-2k miles per year, and when you add up insurance, road tax, residents parking, fuel, etc, etc, it's costing me a fortune to run for very little benefit. Last straw today is, for the second year, running, being told a major part has failed and the service costs will be about £1.5k.

I live in an area where there are a lot of Streetcars - the service whereby you pay an annual fee and can then book the cars for a couple of hours or for a day or longer. I'm thinking for those odd times when I need to do a shopping run, or take stuff to the dump, I can book a Streetcar. For a longer run or a holiday, I can just hire a car. It's going to work out cheaper (and, incidentally, be greener).

Has anyone got experience of the service? I'm wondering about car availability, reliability, etc. It seems like a perfect solution but giving up my car seems like a big step...
