Guest samurai infidel Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 Hi all. I have to travel into London on wednesday for a job interview. Do any of you know any reasonably priced car parks around the Victoria station area. Thanks for any help given Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Branners Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 If you plan on making the interview on time I wouldnt drive in. You will also be going through the congestion charge which you need to pay before hand. Just find an outlying railway or tube station and park there.

Guest samurai infidel Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 need to be in london for 10am, and the train at that time of the day is nearly £300 from Middlesbrough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Branners Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 Drive down to Bedford or Luton Parkway and get a Thameslink in to St Pancreas or Farringdon and get the tube from there. Parking for the day would be around £12 and train to London return would be around £20 for a travelcard. Booking a train this far out should be much cheaper than that. Try http://www.raileasy.co.uk and see how much that would cost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abz Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 All of the parking is expensive around Victoria station, Best bet would be a NCP car park. Though as mentioned above, expect heavy heavy traffic! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 If you plan on making the interview on time I wouldnt drive in. You will also be going through the congestion charge which you need to pay before hand. Just find an outlying railway or tube station and park there. You can pay congestion charge any time up till midnight. Just look online, I found a great one when I went for a day trip to the British Museum, a double helix in Bloomsbury, £12 for the day. Plenty of spaces and filled with exotica. People have this fear of London, but really there's nothing to be afraid of except the Muslim bomber types. Oh, sorry, *remembers religion ban.
