London Porsche Locations
I'm going to be in London for some biz and my family's going to be with me for some sight seeing. Any place cool I should check out while the wife is at Harrod's?

Jeff:
Just returned from an 8 day vacation in London - lots of P cars and Ferraris on the roads ( still weird to see a right hand drive 997)....Saw a very cool Audi dealership on the way to Heathrow, that appeared to have some race cars on display. Didn't make it up there, but read that the vintage F 1 collection at Donington Park is worth seeing. Mark

When my wife hits Harrods I make a point of coming along and parking myself in the Champers and Oyster Bar on the food floor. One of my favourite spots.

From Harrods a short walk takes you to One Hyde Park and the McLaren showroom..
Or head west a tad to South Kennsington to see a few 'dealers'.. Lambo are just outside the station with a few decent dealers in the mews just to the north, normally have a few classic P cars in stock plus lots of olde Brit cars.. Contact Us | Graeme Hunt Ltd. FISKENS Fine Historic Automobiles - - Contact Fiskens of Kensington Plus others. Nearest P car dealer is on Berkeley Square.. a bit of a hike.. Hope that helps.. Or just wander down Sloane Street and Kings Road... see the P cars in motion plus the people...

We are staying in South Kensington so hopefully I can get to these spots without the family going, "Daaaad, I don't want to go THERE!"

Also in South Ken is the Science museum, well worth a trip... and family friendly!
You might win trendy Dad points by suggesting a trip to Camden Lock market.. especially if you have teenage kids.
