Over here (InCanada) I'm stuck in a DORF truck. (Figures the guys at Ford spell it wrong you know. If you ever drove one you would know it's a Dorf and not a Ford.)
And just for comparison, a friend's nephew just got his driver's licence and his insurance for the year on his fairly new car cost him $3300.00
So that would be around 1484.64 British pounds (according to the latest conversionary data from 5 minutes ago.)
Factor in fuel at $.70/litre, oil , etc.
Makes you wonder how one can afford it.
If bus service was reliable it would be a very good option. Makes me jealous of you people with useful transit services.

In Canada as well. Insurance here is a killer, you need to be over 24, married and be Knighted to pay less than $2000 a year. I am strong supporter of Foot travel or cycling. The bike is the best means of transport in Toronto. But as cars go you may laugh, but Toyota Corola is amazing.

Toyota Corolla are one of the most reliable cars according to Consumer Reports.
My insurance (before safe driving discounts) is around $1400/yr. That's more than the 4X4 deRanger I drive is worth. And the wife is just taking lessons to get her licence. I am actually looking for a used Corolla for her! My buddy picked one up a year ago for $400.
And I like how easy Imports are to work on. Half a dozen metric size tools and you can take the whole thing apart. Not like my truck that takes 3 different tools (1 standard & 2 metric) just to take off the air cleaner.
BTW-how can you tell if an adjustable wrench is metric or standard sizes ? ;-)

The adjustable wrench is easy. Set it to the fully closed position, hit your self on the head really hard and if you start seeing stars then it is clearly American imperial, if you don`t see stars then you know it the reall metric thing.
About cars, I love that you can go to a junk yard, pickup a car for $200, fix what ever for usually less than $500 and still comes in less then the insurance for the year. If it wasn't illegal to drive with out insurance, I wouldn't recommend it. Just hang out in Junk yards.

Cover about 50 miles / week in the undeniably classic Renault 11.
And 100 / week on a rancid pushbike

Well now I have gone and proven that I am thick headed.
Tried the wrench thing and now it's bent.
So is it worth more now that it's a custom offset adjustable wrench ?
Maybe a few more whacks...then I won't have to worry about my other postings under the `mmmmmbeer' thread.
Get that same buzz without the expense.
But is it actually legal ?
