    goodwood is a good visit, try brands hatch too im sure somthing will be on during your stay, its not too far from london, just up the road from me, the natonal transport musium might be interesting

    have a go on the london eye thats a good laugh and the best way to see london

    think its in july normally the last weekend

    its £132 for the 3 day pass, very expensive but you see some of the rarest cars around, and you not only get to see them up close but racing too, there are also plenty of racing drivers there

    I might try and go if i have the time and the money

    If you're driving, rent a smart! It's good for in-town, anyway. Out of town, it's worse. But a smart shows you the difference between Europe and the USA.

    rent a smart!!! are you nuts!

    the only thing them cars are good for is parking and going across corners instead of around them

    very ridgid in a crash but thats all they are good for is crashing!

    I think going to see the mclaren f1 on display would be a good thing to do. I can't remember the road it is on? don't really know london
