Why Share?

Car Clubs offer a highly attractive alternative to personal car ownership, radically reducing the cost of transportation, as well as the cost of parking, insurance and fuel. Because car club vehicles can be shared easily between residents, the number of car parking spaces required can also be reduced, thereby significantly saving on construction costs; and providing the planning authorities with more flexibility to approve high quality residential construction projects in congested urban environments.

Enviroment

There are many benifits to the enviroment and life balance in general, by using a car share scheme at St Christophers a reduction of 6 cars on our roads has been acheived by this single development, reducing congestion, CO2 emmissions and providing the ability to swap parking spaces for outdoor space, enhancing the lives of everyone.

Financial

The average cost to maintain a petrol car on the road for a single year is estimated to be in the region of £7,000 per year, with our car share scheme these costs are removed for each individual resident, the car is recharged using solar panels installed at the development and is timed to charge at the cheap rate of the JEC tarriff, the maintenance of the car is absorbed in the service charge.
