I'm talking the Continent, where train travel is dirt cheap. The UK has comparatively expensive train travel so the rider demographic might vary. Leisure travelers paying 30 EUR for an intercity train will not exactly be a posh demographic.

Again, Europe, not the UK. It costs thousands to just get a license in Germany. I don't know any legal cars you can pick up for "next to nothing", given that the govt. forces worn-out cars to be discarded.
