I've had a car from Alamo, King's Cross in the past.
136/150 Pentonville Road
London, N1 9JL
http://www.alamo.co.uk
Five minutes walk to St Pancras.
Pretty easy to get to from the West - Just approach London on the A40 and
don't turn off.
Drop passengers and luggage off at St. P on the way past.
Outside congestion charging zone.
No 'airport premium' to pay for car rental.
No need to mess about with tubes, oyster cards and all that confusion that
goes with them!
