For the sake of about 30 minutes each way, i will keep my £90

That's like saying you won't pay a premium for a faster car as opposed to a slow car though.
Everything is relative.

You use a car every day you half wit. How can you compaire something that could save you time every single day, to something that could save you 30 minutes - once?

Of course it is.
Why buy a Corsa GSi back in the day over a 1.2 8v? Because it's getting to where it wants to be quicker. If you weren't bothered about it, you would have bought a 1.2 8v.
