Frankly I wouldn't think of paying 45 pounds for a private car. What are they picking you up in -- a Rolls? I pay 25 pounds for a private car from Heathrow to Covent Garden, so I can't imagine that to the Grosvenor would be more. You need to call Swiss Cottage Cars at 011-44-207-431-2700 if you are at all concerned with throwing away money. $30 plus is a lot of difference.<BR>The last I knew Ray Skinner is a minimum of 39 pounds, still a lot more than 25, but at least less than 45.<BR><BR>But as to your original question, even 45 pounds is probably less than a taxi, especially considering it is a guaranteed rate even if stuck in traffic.

I would second Patrick on Swiss Cottage. We used them and actually made the same trip from Heathrow to Grosvenor House (wasn't original plan, long story).<BR><BR>They were reasonably priced, prompt and the driver was friendly. Good service.

Ray Skinner and Swiss Cottage used to be pretty close in cost - but Skinners has had two recent rate increases and they are now nearly as much as a black cab.<BR><BR>Swiss Cottage would be a good choice.
