I moved to London last year and this turned out to be a fortune timing.
My car, a Honda Civic 2007 diesel, is not ULEZ compliant and I will have to pay £12.50/day to drive it from August 2023 due to the low emission zone expansion. I plan to sell it in July.
Guess what? I've been using my Swytch e-bike happily here in London to get around the suburbs. There are even some Amsterdam style bike lanes to get further into the city.
Pros when I get rid of the car:
* no insurance, tax, ULEZ charge, fuel, trip to fuel station, servicing charges, worries about people scratching it...
* Uber for when I really need a car (eg. I have a group with me)
* able to take short-cuts and bypass unpleasant town centers/sometimes
* feeling of getting fresh air and exercise
* helping a cleaner environment for next generation
Cons:
* weather has a big factor when riding and planning trips, all you really need though is gloves, a waterproof jacket - maybe waterproof over-trousers for when there is heavy rain.
* cold weather waters my eyes and hits me in the face
* have to unlock & lock the bike and carry a D-lock
I doubt I will ever own a car after August 2023.
