Where I live, the concept is called “car sharing”. There are two small cars just across the street and if I need one, it costs 2,50 € per hour plus maybe 0,30 € per kilometer, fuel included. So if I need to make a weekly grocery run to one of the large stores, it’s probably just a little over 10-12 Euros for three hours all told.

Now, I own a car that’s older and too cheap to not keep it for longer drives when I am seeing my family (roughly an hour each way) at the weekends, but for my day-to-day needs, I probably shouldn’t own one.
