It's a complete joke tbf, so glad I can drive.
Train to Bristol from Notts is £150 for the two of us, yeah we could get one of those railcards which gives 25% off for couples but it costs £30 initially and so if you're just doing one big journey for a holiday say..it's barely worth the bother.
Cost in petrol is £40, now clearly there's 270 miles of wear on the car, but if you're making those sort of journeys with regularity, it's still going to be cheaper to run a cheap but reliable model of vehicle and maintain it.
