Are there any car rental places that will allow that?

Not likely. It’s easy to rent a car in continental Europe and take it to a neighboring country, but you might have trouble finding a company that will do this.
I have to ask you, why rent a car? You don’t need one. London has the Underground, goes everywhere, and there’s a good train system too if you go outside of the city. You can take the chunnel to Paris, and again, they have a good metro too. You can get train passes from RailEurope for travel outside the city, or day-passes on the Underground and Metro.
You’d be mad to drive in London and Paris anyway. You pay a daily fee for driving in London (about $16 a day), and I hear Paris is the worst city in the world to drive in.
Doubt it!
In the UK we have the steering wheel on the right, in France it’s on the left! So a UK car isn’t wanted in France.
Take the Eurostar high speed train from St. Pancras rail station in London to Paris.
