Ricky Posted February 10, 2009 Posted February 10, 2009 Hi all. I'm hoping someone might be able to help me out. I'm off to Brussels on Thursday on the Eurostar, I had planned to get the train down but it's going to cost £125 quid for me and the good lady so thinking about driving to London. I'm heading down the M40 from hereford, does anyone know of anywhere fairly safe to leave the car until I get back on Sunday?? I don't mind parking up somewhere and getting a train into central London. Any ideas anyone?

Jordan Posted February 10, 2009 Posted February 10, 2009 Whenever I drive to London I park at cockfosters. It is right next to the tube and costs about £3 per day. However I would have thought it would be a bit out of your way Richard.
Ricky Posted February 10, 2009 Author Posted February 10, 2009 Yeah it's a bit out of the way J.dogg. Justin offered his car park but he's in Saath Laandon which would mean a fair old trek around the M25. Looking for somewhere to the West really.
Ray-Von Posted February 10, 2009 Posted February 10, 2009 There used to be a large car park at Hillingdon Tube Station (end of M40) which worked on a similar basis to Cockfosters - but I haven't used it for some time.

It might be worth you checking out National Express from there, they do some really cheap fares from city centres, from £1
Ricky Posted February 10, 2009 Author Posted February 10, 2009 Going to check national express now. could be an option.

Ricky Posted February 10, 2009 Author Posted February 10, 2009 National Express aren't great to be honest, quite a long wait and 4 1/2 hours to get there, 5 1/2 to get home.
