Going on hols soon and need to drive to Heathrow and leave my car for 12 days.  I see Purple Parking offer some good deals on-line where they park your car for you and then bring it back on arrival.  Has anyone used this service? Thoughts / opinions?

cheers

Every time I go from Heathrow, they are very good and reliable. I normally get them to drop my car at the terminal for me when I get back to make it easier. But its only 15 mins in the bus anyway.

read quite a few reviews on the net and there are a lot of bad ones.  It looks like a great service and was going to select the option for them to bring my car to me when we get back but having 2nd thoughts now.

interested in all views.

I've used them 10+ times including only 2 days ago, never had a problem. Remember people are way more likely to mention a bad experience than a good one, human nature............

I've used Purple at Heathrow a lot, always with the kerbside drop-off/pickup. Excellent service.

was years ago and again i doubt this company did that but i would never trust anyone with parking my car

People are often asking about airport parking.

Here's a 25% discount code for those who might need it, runs out pretty soon though.
