How Long To Heathrow

Hi All!
We are going to LHR for a few days in January and are returning Jan. 8 (Sat) morning. Our flight is at 9:30a. We are in UC and the Virgin Limo is scheduled to pick us up at Claridges at 6:15a.

1.) Is this enough time to get to Heathrow and enjoy the clubhouse?
2.) What exactly is "drive through checkin"? I have never heard people speak about it on these boards.

First question to ask yourself if you're staying at Claridges is "do I really WANT to go home"[?] ;)

At that time of the morning failing VERY unusual roadworks, 5 minutes to A4, 15 minutes to M4, 20 minutes to Heathrow. So a 40 minute trip. You should be checking in by about 07:00.

For drive through checkin see this TR and what VS have to say.
