London Motorshow this weekend.

Anyone going this weekend?

As i dont know that part of London and im travelling travelling down from Oxford, im looking to find what would be easiest and where to park.

1. Shall i park at an underground station and tube it in (if so which is the safest).

2. drive in and get in early and use the limited parking at Excel (or is there somewhere nearby i could use instead)

3. other ideas?


Lastly anyone else going?

Re: London Motorshow this weekend.

Going next weekend, sorry.
But I'd suggest just going by train completely.
I've got a parking spot in London, but hell, it's hard working getting to it, and then getting in and out of it. People double-park (right next to you, not just across the road from you!) for the sheer hell of it and you have no idea who it belongs to to be able to ask them to shift it.
Car parks are, from what i've seen, expensive.
Plus you'll proably cross the congestion charge?
Save yourself the hassle and grab the train I know it's a tad inconvenient, but sometimes, it's the lesser of two evils.
