Langton Cruise terminal is 'in the middle of nowhere'. You're effectively forced to use the Manpower car park, at £7 per night:

(18 x £7 = £136).

Associated British Ports want £172 for 18 nights (based upon the assumption that you're on the Black Watch departure on 26th November).

Southampton Port Parking is marginally cheaper (at £132) but, given that you're not using Fred Olsen's designated partner, you might have to wait around quite some time for a shuttle bus:

Parking in the city centre wouldn't work out much cheaper. For example, parking at Southampton Central rail station would cost you £99 but you'd then have to pay for a taxi in each direction.

FO sometimes offer free parking at Southampton - check with them whether it's available. Also, they have a Portlink coach service from some regions to get you there.
Les - why not blow your savings on return rail tickets? Then it's just bus or taxi from preston. Plus you aren't driving back all that way whilst cream-crackered.

Thank you all for advice. Finally settled for £6.50 a day with free transport to and from the car park to the dock
