On street or in car parks. Per day or per hour rate. What have you encountered?


I think I've seen £4.80 p/h in Central London...

It'll doubtless be an airport somewhere, mental prices.

Valet Parket somewhere is going to be the most expensive i'm guessing.
Harrods is more than the £4.80 ph.

Think this fella got stung for a quid or two for parking. Not sure that the location was the main problem though.

Birmingham Airport short stay car park, for dropping off and picking up people.... it's £1 for 15 minutes and proceeds to go skywards once you get over an hour as they REALLY don't want cars staying in there.

Annoyingly enough the bds have stealthily put it up recently, simultaneously more than doubling the charges and halving the interval! It now rings up £2.50 every ten minutes for the first 20 minutes, rising to £7 per 15 minutes after that. Unsuspecting, I parked for 30 minutes a couple days ago to collect someone. Under the old system it would've been two quid, instead I had to pay £12, would've been £19 if we'd been 5 minutes later. eek

Absolutely unbelievable. You can park an hour at bloody Heathrow for less than a fiver!

George Michael certainly paid a hefty price when he parked his car in the front of that shop and got a couple of months jail.smile

Wembley was dear enough for me on Saturday, I dare say there's dearer though.
