Frank,
I go to London every other month or so. Here are some of my favorites:
1. St. Martins - auto model store; Charing Cross rd across from Wyndams
theater. Used to sell Wills finecast models of MBT, MGB, etc. Tiny store,
huge selection.
2. Motorbooks - great auto-related bookstore; if they dont have it you dont
need it. On St Martins Court, between Leicester Square and Covent Garden.
Check out the basement for NOS shop manuals. http://www.motorbooks.co.uk
3. London Transport Museum - just off the Covent Garden piazza.

4. Brooklands Museum in Weybridge. Take a 30min train from Waterloo Station
toward Woking; get off at Weybridge; 5 min cab ride from there. Loads of
motoring/aviation stuff. http://www.brooklandsmuseum.com/
Drop me an email if you want additional info/suggestions. When are you there?
