    £6 per day (book by 30 Sept 2007) at the NCP Heathrow Flightpath car park - it's right next to the airport and there's a shuttle bus each 15 mins to take you to Terminals 1/2/3, I used this a couple of months ago and would definitely do it again. However, this isn't a meet and greet service so you'll need to decide whether it's worth it. :o

    I found this link on here before:
    http://www.purpleparking.com/pa

    somehow it works out very cheap, I haven't been brave enough to book it yet. We are flying to NZ for over 3 weeks in december and it quotes us just £28.35 for meet&greet.

    It was nollag2006 who posted it before.

    Because they just park your car at the roadside and not in a secure compound!

    Well I can't really back that up but you do hear lots of stories where this has happened, and also more miles than you might expect have often been put on cars that have used these services.

    Be warned!
    .....

  • I've used Purple Parking at Heathrow and they are a big operation with a huge secure compound. I have heard of other less scrupulous companies dumping your car in a side street but I doubt very much PP would.

    The reason it is cheap is because of some sort of promotion PP have with a company called PA Consulting.

    I use CPS, which i think have changed their name to Meteor Meet and Greet parking. I fly from Manc.

    They ain't that cheap, but it is a good service. I've never had more than 5 miles on my car, so would wholeheartedly recommend them!!

    I just tried it for Manchester for 1 week in October and it came to over £50. Is this special promotion only for Heathrow do we think?
