Depends where you go. If going into the centre of London I would recommend renting bikes - ebikes or Boris bikes. If you are travelling outside of London then a car is the go.

Be very careful where you park you car as the tariffs are set as to pay much more than it worth.

London is so culturally diverse and beautiful. The smaller streets took a bit of getting used to, but roundabouts are fun.
