Scooter would probably be the cheapest option but it's not going to be significantly quicker than bike as they only do 25-30 mph.
You can pick up an old banger car for couple of hundred quid and then when you don't need if probably sell it for roughly what you paid?
I don't envy you though, I used to ride into uni every day and that way only ten miles each way, a brilliant blast when the weather was good but then the rain and wind in winter turned it into an epic slog! Probably wasn't as bad as I remember it! I do remember hanging wet gear on the radiators in lectures much to the disgust of some people. Anyway, I digress and am not really helping!
As nellyrodders said, you may be able to get a lift, even if they live further out of city it's a start.
