Anyone got a graph?

Looking for something comparing the cost of renting to buying over the last few years.

Something like this, but for the UK.

Anyone?

no graph but:

Current figures for my flat in Guildford.
rent 700
mortgage 1089

1994 Stoke on trent (identical 3 bed houses)
rent 250
mortgage 250

and it will depend where. House prices have not (yet) gone silly in the Northeast, Wales, NI or most of the midlands)

the houses in Stoke were going for about 40 then,IIRC, going for 70ish now.
