You need to allow about 45 - 60 minutes from your plane landing to clearing customs and immigration and reaching the arrivals area. I can meet you there and then drive into central London, which can take from 1 hour 15 minutes to 1 hour 45 minutes.
Gatwick Airport
Driving from Gatwick Airport to Central London is about 30 miles (48 km) but, with traffic, can take about 1 hour 30 minutes.
Sights of interest between London and Gatwick include Sir Winston Churchill’s beloved home, Chartwell. Down House was the home of Charles Darwin, and Hever Castle was the ancestral home of King Henry VIII’s second wife, Ann Boleyn. Or head straight to London for a highlights tour.
