There are few cities that compare to Madrid. Bursting with more than 3 million people, Madrid is one heck of a party-city with smashing museums, palaces and shopping during the day and non-stop tapas and club music by night. It gets straight 10's for cultural and artistic heritage. If you've already booked tickets from London to Madrid, get on to checking out cheap car rental deals in Madrid. There are just as many treasures outside the city as in! You can find car rental companies at the Madrid Barajas Airport as well as at all the main train stations. At the airport you'll find Avis, Hertz and Europcar between the first and second arrival halls and in Terminal 1.
As for car hires in the city, head to the biggest train and bus stations: Chamartin, Nuevos Ministerios, Sol and Atocha. Also, most big hotels will have their own car hire services available to their guests or at least be able to recommend a rental company in Madrid that is located close to your hotel in Madrid.
As in most cities with populations in the millions, Madrid also suffers from traffic and lack of parking in the city centre; too many cars and not enough space for them. Parking can take a long time and unless you're extremely skilled in parallel parking, stick to car parks. Also if you park in the street you run the risk of getting your bumpers nicked and scratched by other drivers trying to squeeze into a spot.
There are underground car parks near most metro stations as well as at major shopping junctions. Just look for the signs for El Corte Ingles, a major Spanish department store. Usually they have their own car park which can be used as well for non-clients.
