You'll arrive about 45m sooner (46m by train vs 1h 31m by car). Tickets start at around €37 compared to roughly €24 in fuel and tolls — so you're paying a bit more, but getting hours of your day back, a city-centre arrival, and the freedom to work or relax instead of drive.
Direct services run with London North Eastern Railway.
