Our knackered VW Golf broke down last week and is going to cost about £550 to fix (it's about 16 years old I think).
DH and I are in talks about whether to fix it and risk more expensive repairs down the line (we really have no money), or to join the City Car Club scheme.
We live in a major city, a 20 minute walk to the centre, both walk to work, both have bikes, live 2 minutes from a high street with veg shop, aldi, deli, newsagents etc.
I'm thinking we'd do any major shops with a supermarket delivery, would use the car club to visit family and friends, and I think we'd end up saving a bit.
But it would be interesting to hear any tales, positive or negative, of your experiences with the car club. There are 4 cars in our area so I don't think there would be too much of a problem with availability.
DH is worried that we'd try it, then decide we need our own car, and have to buy someone else's clapped out car as our own would have been scrapped!
