It cost 111 GBP for 8 days, however this was a special rate related to the bank holiday. They were a good company to deal with, allowing us to extend our rental and then bring the car back earlier than planned when a SpaceA flight popped up. They arranged for a taxi to pick us up and drop us off at the gate nearest billeting at no charge to us. I would not hesitate to use their services again. The car was clean and relatively low mileage. As for renting a car at Heathrow Airport, do a simple search with Orbitz or the like. That will quickly answer your question re: price. But, in general, car rental taxes are higher on vehicles rented at airports. Have fun, England is a great place to visit!   Nelly Senior Member Username: Nelly Post Number: 983 Registered: 07-2005 Posted From: 90.194.233.17 Posted on Thursday, June 10, 2010 - 02:02 pm:    Myles, You can check the AMCGRAMS of RAF Mildenhall and call around for price and availability. http://www.spacea.net/amcgrams/amcgrammildenhall.pdf Theres also a free shuttle bus that runs from and to Mildenhall to Heathrow or Gatwick Airport and they are on current schedule.   Myles G.

Or is it more economical to get a vehicle at Heathrow Airport.
