Parking for a week near St Pancras?

Hi all,

My wife and I have booked a trip to the south of France using the Eurostar and the TGV.

Our Eurostar leaves St Pancras at 09.25 so we would like to be at St Pancras an hour earlier in order to allow for 'check in'
When we get back, our Eurostar arrives at St Pancras at 18.35.

Our starting and finishing point is Manchester city centre.
We need to travel to, and from, London to pick up the Eurostar and have looked at Megabus, National Express Coaches and Virgin Trains. Unfortunately all of their journeys are either waaay to expensive or not at the times we need.

Does anyone know of anywhere reasonably priced, and safe, where we could leave our car in London for the time that we are away. (8 days in total)

We don't mind leaving our car outside London centre and using public transport to get to St Pancras if that would be better (and cheaper)

Your advices would be appreciated

Leo
Dont you just love freshly congealed pigs blood, with a bit of fat in :D

    Parking in London's pricey. This car park is about a quarter of an hour's walk away (or they will drop you off/pick you up) and will set you back £13.00 per day. Or you could try this private garage, a tube ride away in Marble Arch, at £60.00 per week.

    For further out I can't really help you I'm afraid.
