    Thanks to those who replied. I am 30!, acquired licence in January. I am not scared to drive but it makes me stressful on new roads. But there are so many other equations: traffic (congestion), fuel cost, mileage and so on.

    Cheers!

      If you drive you'll learn to hate Audi and BMW drivers
      If you take the train you'll learn to hate everyone who breathes the same air as you

          Nope!

          Reading -> Redhill or Clapham Junction -> East Croydon Station -> 5 min walk

            BMW drivers in NL seem considerably less up themselves than in the past; I think most of them have bought Audis and put their egotistical gitness on steroids.
