Look out for the round-abouts if you rent a car. They require some tricky maneuvering.

I found driving in the UK to be a lot easier than I was expecting. Roundabouts aren't really that difficult, once you understand what is going on. The thing I had the most trouble with was shifting with my left hand (the motion was just 'different' - made it easy to miss a gear the first couple of days and I punched the glass with my right hand more than a few times when going for the shifter), and parking in those tiny spots was an area of concern.

I didn't drive in London at all though (in my two trips to the UK so far, the closest I've been to London has been Heathrow then off to Basingstoke). If I spent any time there, I'd definately avoid driving
