Default Gatwick to Heathrow

I have an unholy set of flights booked from the US which culminates in a
transfer from Gatwick Airport to Heathrow Airport for the final leg of my
journey. I only have 3 hours between landing and take off of the next flight
(need 40 minutes check in) and I assume it will take me 40 minutes to get
out of Gatwick. This leaves me with about an hour and a half to get from LGW
to LHR.

Can anyone advise me as to the best way to do this? I'm thinking taxi, but
those Checker Cabs guys at G


I am a London (black) taxi driver. I live in Worthing and it would only
take a very short diversion for me to pick you up on my way in to London
or Heathrow.

When are you arriving and at what time

Gatwick always have a laugh with prices. Last time it cost me £80 from LGW
home to Islington! Any viable public transport options?

That's about the normal price of a London taxi but I'm quite happy to
make a fixed price deal for less than that, depending on the time and
date.
