£20 on parking - that's a huge understatement! Have you included the monthly parking for your home or office?
I did say that most would be paying more than the items listed, I deliberately picked low prices so that almost no one could say that they significantly undercut that item.
Even as someone who lives somewhere where there's significant numbers of places to park for free (& walks to and from work and my other half also has free parking at their work) it's still easy to end up paying out £20 or more in a year for parking over half a dozen trips.
They could, but I personally prefer to have a car. This is the other point people miss. A car is almost certainly not, by a quite considerable margin, the cheapest solution to my transport needs. But I want one, and I can afford it, so I have one.
Which is an attitude which (not making a comment on your age, but rather a generalisation) trends to be held more by those who are older than about 40.
Which is reflected the numbers who own a full driving licence, where 40-70's are 85% driving licence holders, compared to 30-40's where this is 79% (and relatively few pass their test after 30).
