Need some London help/advice!

Post by zachf88 » Sat Feb 21, 2009 11:13 pm

Hey guys, I'm in London for a week (my first time). I've already seen many cool cars. I hope to see an RS4 here! Also, for those of you who live or visit London often, what is a must to do? Also, what restaurants do you guys recommend? and any car related stuff that I must do (like visiting the audi dealer..... where is it?). I saw the porsche dealership on my way to the hotel from the airport... they had a beautiful yellow GT2! Thanks for any tips and recommendations!

Advice? You should have gone to Paris!! :biggrin3:

Pasta Brown's in Covent Garden for great food and, most importantly, it's not totally overpriced like most London eateries. Tate Modern for some great, "how's that art?!" moments, and it's free to get in to 90% of it.

Always nice cars out the front of the Dorchester so maybe have a look there!

Thanks guys! I went to Sloane Square yesterday and was very overwhelmed in the first 5 mins! Saw a silver B7 RS4 avant (never seen before), a 722 SLR, a couple of ferraris, an R8, etc....

also, why doesn't anyone drink tap water at restaurants? I'm getting tired of the waiters bringing still water.... is London tap water really polluted?

Not polluted I don't think, it just tastes really bad due to the dissolved minerals from the source rocks and it smells of swimming pool!

Oh, and the restaurant can sting you for a few quid in the process! :biggrin3:
