london couple who <u+2018>don't need a car<u+2019> want a lift 14-11-16 a couple from london who insist they do not need a car have asked for a lift. tom logan and his girlfriend eleanor shaw live in east london and rely on trains and ubers to get around, believing that cars are wasteful. however they really need a lift to a wedding near portsmouth on saturday. shaw said: <u+201c>living in london gives you a different perspective on transport. it makes you realise that having your own car is simply unnecessary, not to mention terrible for the environment. <u+201c>that said, we could really do with being picked up from portsmouth station around midday on saturday.<u+201d> logan added: <u+201c>owning a car is a british obsession we just don<u+2019>t buy into. we<u+2019>re so well served for transport links where we live, we really have no need for a car <u+2013> except for every time we leave london. <u+201c>in the provinces, we have to rely on the kindness of family, friends and sometimes even strangers to give us lifts, much like children being taken to after-school activities. <u+201c>we don<u+2019>t give people petrol money though, preferring to operate a vague barter system.<u+201d>
