KB CARS · PRE-BOOKED PRIVATE HIRE
Pre-book a pickup from your Kensington address, with a vehicle chosen for your party and luggage. Request a journey-specific quote from our 24-hour office.
BEFORE YOU TRAVEL
Plan the car arrival separately from your train departure, allowing time to reach the platform.
London King's Cross is on Euston Road, London N1 9AL, and is a separate railway station from St Pancras International. Tell our office your train service and the time you want to arrive at the station—not just the train's departure time.
Pancras Road has set-down points on the island and station side. Allow time to continue inside: the main concourse has a family lounge and the Elphick Room for mobility assistance.
YOUR W8 PICKUP
A pre-booked car collects you from your W8 address, so you do not need to carry your luggage to an Underground station before the journey. Tell the office your exact pickup address and any entrance or access details that will help the driver find you.
High Street Kensington Underground Station is on Kensington High Street, W8 5SA. It is distinct from South Kensington and Kensington (Olympia), so use the full station name if it helps identify your starting point.
ROOM FOR YOUR JOURNEY
Discuss a saloon, estate or MPV with the office, or ask about executive, minivan and luxury options. An estate may suit extra luggage; a six-passenger vehicle is available as a group option, while seven- and eight-plus-passenger vehicles are available to enquire about.
Tell us the number and sizes of suitcases and cabin bags, plus any pushchair, folding wheelchair or unusual item. The office can plan the vehicle around the whole party and its combined load.
RETURN JOURNEY
Arrange the return from London King's Cross to W8 separately. Give the office your arriving train operator and service, origin, arrival date and time, and a contact number. Call 020 8870 8888 to agree a lawful, accessible meeting point and exit; the outward driver or vehicle is not automatically retained.
If your train is delayed or your exit or plans change, contact the office and confirm the revised collection. A requested change is not agreed until the office accepts it; call if a time-critical message has not been acknowledged.
GOOD TO KNOW
The essentials for your car journey and onward train.
Your quote reflects the exact journey and vehicle you need. Send your full W8 pickup address, destination, date and time, passenger and luggage details, train service and requested station-arrival time. Include any extra stop or vehicle preference. KB Cars is registered with the ICO; our Privacy Notice explains how we handle your booking information.
An enquiry, quote or payment alone does not confirm a car. KB confirms the booking by SMS and/or email.
Arrange railway assistance separately with your train operator; booking the car does not arrange it. King's Cross has step-free access to all platforms, and its station guide gives assistance and lift information.
Tell our office about your mobility and boarding needs. Guidance to the car and loading ordinary bags or a folding wheelchair can be arranged without charge; contact us about the help needed so we can coordinate a suitable driver. Any optional escort inside a building is assessed separately, with arrangements and any cost agreed. KB does not currently have wheelchair-accessible vehicles.
Your car journey and rail ticket are separate bookings. Keep the service details to hand so the transfer can be arranged around the right departure.
