I have never owned a car and at this point I have no intention of ever buying one. The same people who tell me I should get one are the same ones who are always complaining about their car problems:

"Petrol costs too much"

"I can't afford the repayments"

"I don't have time to exercise"

"Repairs are too expensive"

"I can't go outside when it rains" (yes, I've heard this one from car owners. Personally I wake up every day hoping for rain)

Blah, blah, blah! Of course, there are some inconveniences of not owning one, but I think they pale into insignificance compared to the inconveniences and problems caused by having one.
