I believe both places are outside the zone. It can be £10.50-£14 a day.

Do you have somewhere to park the car?
Most people would just catch the tube.

People use the tube. Plenty of people dont have cars in London.

If you are an international student with plenty of money and a car, plus you have already decided on you accommodation and it has its own secure parking then leave the car there during the week an drive off on trips at the weekend.

Extremely. See the point above about public transport and cost.

It's incredibly rare to drive in London. No one of sane mind would choose to drive in London due to how expensive and hectic it is. London's public transport system is really good so it will most likely work out cheaper, quicker, and a lot less stressful to just use public transport.
