No 3 offspring has lost all confidence to drive, she's 21, has a MGTF and now tells us she has no interest to drive again, she past her test first time, has never had a knock (apart from losing a mirror in the lanes 18 months ago)
Not sure what to do?

Sadly not, she has been getting a cab to the station for months now, will then get the tube and walk the other end when any other person would drive.

It's not a cost problem, she earns good money, I like driving and think she will give up now and never drive again.

Thanks for all your thoughts, problem has been temporarily solved.

"Is her car reliable? (it is an MGF)....and feels she can't drive it because of that?"

Yes it's packed up so she has no car.

I think (hope) that a couple of weeks without may sway her into wanting to drive again.
A change of car is on the cards as well.

I have offered some off roading in the Land Rover or track time in the Caterham and got a blank stair back.
