A 19yo might enjoy Selfridges on Oxford Street a whole lot more than Harrods!
Also take her to Camden, Chelsea and Notting Hill - interesting sights to see!
For of the beaten track stuff, visit Highgate Cemetary, where amongst other famous people Carl Marx is buried.
For car stuff, you can do far worse than visit the Brooklands racetrack, and if you have time head up to Neport Pagnell for a factory tour at Aston Martin.
If you plan on heading out to Kingston, then do take the trouble to head on to Richmond, and go have a beer at the "Slug and Lettuce" just off the bridge over the Thames. Just make sure to leave before high tide if you have plans for the evening!
i also agree with Steve - Oxford is a short journey, but well worth it. Not far south from there is Henley, and if you stay off the main road, you might even come across Piss Hill (I kid you not!), where you have to sample a local ale!
Oh yes - enjoy those damned roundabouts!
