Worth buying a car?

I’m starting uni in September and recently passed my driving test, I wanted a car but I’m not sure if it’s a feasible option, due to insurance etc and being a student.
Anyone in a similar situation? Or have any advice?

Thanks

Parking in and around unis is usually heavily restricted and many uni accommodation options won't have parking (or if they do it will add a significant cost to your bill). It's usually only worth it if you are on a healthcare course with placements that are hard to get to or at unsociable times of day.

That’s what I was thinking.
I am doing a health care course but the placement is a 3 minute walk! So I probably won’t even need a car.
It’s just to commute home, as I’ll be 4 hours away, so I thought it might be good, because the trains aren’t always reliable.

Thanks

Neither thing can be known before the day of the journey.

No, you’ll waste so much money on parking and insurance just to make the occasional commute a bit easier. People commute all of the time and there often aren’t problems. Having a problem with a train/late train is no different to being stuck in traffic in a car. Neither thing can be known before the day of the journey.

As much as I'm in the no-car camp, over the last year scheduled train strikes have v much been a thing
