edd_t Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 In September I'm off on my hols. And thought that this time round we would park the car at Heathrow. Can anyone recomend a company? I've used google'fu and found about 8 companies that do it. And I know (from good old Watchdog) that there have been some very dodgy ones in the past. So just looking to see which, if any, has anyone used? Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustGav Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 Do what my folks do, if you book into the holiday inn next to junction 4, they offer you a bed for the night and I believe up 2 weeks free parking at the hotel. http://www.london-heathrow.holiday-inn.com/special_offers.asp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

erol_h Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 Make sure the carpark you choose is the one's where you park your own car and take your own keys with you. I left my car at a carpark where you leave the keys and they park your car for you and didn't like the fact some one else had my keys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're bothered, make a note a the mileage and a sticky note on the dash saying 'mileage noted'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Mark Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 I used the meet and greet service last time I flew from Heathrow. I booked it online, then give them a ring when you are 10 mins from your terminal, a guy meets you there and takes your car away for you, then when you come back ring them once you have your luggage and they will be outside waiting. Much better than trying to figure out which car park you left the car in and how to get there. Also I had them valet the car, never seen the car that clean ever! First class service! Plus it was only a few pounds more than the car parks we were looking at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry no idea. I remember searching online for parking, finding it on a few websites and it was only a few pounds more a normal car park. The valet was extra but like I said the car was like a new car, especially the inside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benzsupra Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 If you're not overly worried about the car then you can park it by my house, i live less than a mile from Heathrow and if i'm around i'll take you to the terminal, if not then a cab would be less than £10. Not that i live in a rough area or anything but i don't like parking my Supe on the road even though it's a dead end road in a quiet estate (i'm just protective!). I'll keep my eye on it. There's an option, and it's free! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
