There has to be a limit I guess, otherwise they'd have people taking £500 journeys from Scotland to Gatwick.

How many more miles are you? I thought they offered the extra miles at a price? (I live within the 75m limit so never needed to check)

take a train to a stop just within the 75 mile limit and get the car to pick up from there

In the days where there wasn't it was fantastic for me :D ( I live "slightly" more than 75 miles from either LHR or LGW ).
But yes, you can pay the excess fare should you desire.

It's about £2 per mile for normal boundary exceptions. If you're on a corporate route deal, there is no limit on miles.
