Between £80-200 a month depending on what i do, all social.

Get tube and buses to work so never used for commuting.

Pay £200 a month for 10 months on public transport though.

I do about the same money in Diesel each month but I get a work allowance of 50p a mile and mileage works out to be about 60/40 between Work/private mileage.

Quite believeable if its short trips and townwork in an Impreza.

Especially if the driver likes booting it off the lights to listen to that distinctive cylinder flow imbalance that can fuck pistons / lovely flat 4 burble.
