***DO NOT USE THIS CARPARK***
Left the car for a week, returned to a 50cm crack across the windscreen which was definitely not there when it was dropped off. Carpark staff have refused to accept liability or even investigate it.
Also... it is not clearly advertised that the car will be driven off site. By the time we realised this it was too late as we had to catch the flight.
At first, I thought we had just been unlucky, but after reading other reviews, it is clear that the staff have no respect for people’s vehicles and are driving them like lunatics, causing damage on a regular basis. This has been a very costly lesson learned for us, definitely will not be returning!!!!!
On a plus note, the carpark was clearly signed and the drop off was relatively painless.

I hope never use this parking again.
to all: take all the electronic devices from the car like navigation, recording cameras charges cable. they stole the memory card from me
when you are parking check with parking staff your cars before you live car at the parking and after returning, do it again before you leave the car park.
someone broke the plastic cover of the ignition switch, and if there were no traces, they stole the memory card from the camera because they are recording the cabin inside

*Small stone mark and windsscreen cracked*
Worst experience in a paid car park I have ever had, when i had parked my new Range rover. Left my car there for a week. when driving back home saw cracked windscreen. Also check your mileage before leaving the vehicle!!"they do not keep on the same space.

Booked this parking thinking it was on site parking, because that is what it is advertised as. But when you read the small print in their terms and conditions it states that someone will take your car and drive it somewhere else. Nowhere in their advert does it mention meet and great or valet parking. This is false advertising! They should be reported.

I parked my car for 12 days, and picked it up at night from their badly lit car park. Next day I noticed a dent in the back door. Gatwick Airport Parking refuse to acknowledge any liability. I cannot get it mended on my insurance because I gave my keys to an unknown person, who technically is an uninsured person. My advice is NEVER use this Summer Special service. Park in the Long Stay and keep your keys.
