who are you flying out of Heathrow with?
If it’s BA, you can probably get a voucher off them for free travel on the direct Bus (called Speedlink or something).
I’ve only transferred LHR-LGW once, arriving LHR on Crossair from BSL (this was before the flights were codeshare), and flying across the pond to PIT with BA from LGW, all I had to do was go to the BA customer services desk in T1 arrivals (which was admittedly a bit of a walk from T2), show my onward ticket, and they gave me the voucher.
As far as I can remember, the bus was about £15 otherwise, although don’t quote me on that, it was 6 years ago.
And T5 is right, don’t even consider a taxi unless you’ve just won the lottery… it’s about 25 Miles, and at the rate you get charged in London, it’d probably be around a hundred quid.
And 4 hours isn’t as long as it sounds; depending on the time of day, it can take 75-90 minutes to get round the M25 from Gatwick to Heathrow, plus you have to go through security again at Heathrow, having already passed through baggage reclaim at Gatwick (Incidentally, I’d pick my bags up and check them in again at LHR, my bags were 3 days late arriving in the States after they failed to make it to Gatwick despite being through checked).
