What exactly is a car club?

Could you live without a car? 

School runs, quick shopping trips, commuting to work, or a family outing to the park—could you imagine doing it all without your own car?

Most people assume that owning a car is a necessity. After all, with the average running cost hitting £3,400 a year (and that’s before even buying the car!), you’d expect it to be in constant use.

But here’s the reality: Most cars sit parked for 23 hours a day—on a driveway, in a garage or at work. So why do we still feel the need to own one?

Public transport is a great option, but let’s be real—it’s not always convenient or reliable. So, what’s the alternative?

A car... just not your own.

Think of it like your old pay-as-you-go phone plan. Instead of paying for a car 24/7, you only pay when you actually use it. No insurance, no tax, no fuel costs—they’re all covered in the price.

Sounds too good to be true? It’s not.

Car ownership is changing. Pay-as-you-go cars are a cost-effective, hassle-free alternative. If you haven’t considered it yet, maybe now’s the time.
