And that's a great choice. They're door-to-door (if you have the car dropped off at home), and costs are easily understood too - cost of hiring the car and cost of the petrol. This can be as low as 10p/mile, plus say £60 for the car for the day The downsides of hiring the car - time isn't very useful while you're driving (compared to on a train/plane where you can work, or read, or watch netflix) - usually slower - especially with city centre to city centre - parking stress - Driving is tiring, and more dangerous. A 3 hour drive, then an 8 hour day, then another 3 hour drive. Choice is wonderful. Ideally I'd have something that costs 5p per mile, runs every 5 minutes, is is door to door, and I travel on my own sofa with 300mbit wifi, power, and waiter service. However as that's not possible I, as a consumer, can choose what's important for me for a given journey. Sometimes that's the train, sometimes it's the plane, sometimes it's a coach, sometimes I'll drive |
