I'm in Paris, just a few years shy of your age, haven't had a car for litterally decades. Very rarely, I rent or borrow one. I use my bicycle or the transit system (or I walk). I can hitch a little carriage at the back of my bike. All my options are faster and more convenient than a car ever was. Also much cheaper.
