I may be wrong about this, but the actual driving time is likely to be less than the train time if you take that nonstop one in the morning. Damn sight cheaper, too!

Am assuming you mean from Delhi, isn't it???

Jaipur to Agra return is about INR 2800/-

Delhi - Agra - Delhi should be around the same

Why don't you take Shatabdi?? It's safer, better to travel by train.

Shatabdi is a series of fast trains in Indian Railways. One such train runs between Delhi and Agra.

the one reason to take a car would be to hit towns along the way: Brindavan and Mathura.
