TVR Suitable Parking, London?

[T40ORA]

Have to go to Old Burlington Street in London tomorrow. Anyone know of any parking nearby that won't take the chin spoiler and door mirrors off my Tamora?

TIA

There are NCP's on Burlington Street and Grosvenor Hill that I've parked my Chim in. They're expensive, but then all car parks around that area are pricey. The Burlington Street one is the nicest. I've seen all manner of cars, Lambo's, Ferrari's, Porker 911 GT's etc so I'm sure a Tam would fit.

That's great, thanks.

And don't forget the £8 congestion charge!

Or just park on the street there, its pretty safe. I usually park right outside Embassy when Im out and have seen a similar looking Tam there too.

Yeah, but does it mean I have to have a pocket full of 20p pieces?!

Lee, you should be fine on the street in that part of town.

Much of Westminster has a pay via 'phone scheme (its replacing pay & display). Its almost impossible to work unless you pre-register with the council first. Even then you can only park for a small amount of hours (normally 2) and I'd guess it'll be about £6 an hour!

If you are parking for the day, you'd be better off in a car park.

Check out http://www.westminster.gov.uk/services/transportan... although its hardly the easiest site to navigate.

Best bit of advice I can give is DON'T PARK ILLEGALLY FOR 5 MINUTES!! You will get a ticket.

Enjoy!

Richard.

Hi Richard,

Thanks for the advice. I'll have a look at the website and looks like I'll go underground! I'll certainly not even think about parking in a naughty manner just in case one of the buggers does me for it.

Cheers,

Lee

Is the NCP in New Burlington Street?
