If the luggage needs a second car, we tell you in writing before you fly. Terminals and meeting points for every airport are on our London airport transfers page.

Frequently Asked Questions About Mercedes V-Class Hire with a Chauffeur in London
How much does a Mercedes V-Class chauffeur cost in London?
From £290 for the four-hour minimum. The price is per car, not per passenger, and covers the chauffeur, fuel, parking and London road charges. The full-day rate and the fixed airport fares are on the price cards above.
Is anything added on top of the price?
No. The fare in your confirmation is the amount you pay, with no booking fee and no card surcharge. The only extra is an hour you ask to add on the day, at the hourly rate and agreed with you first.
Can I book in advance, and how far ahead is best?
Yes. Online booking stays open until one hour before pickup, but in school holidays and cruise season book as soon as your dates are fixed, because that is when families and groups ask for the V-Class most. The price is held from the moment you book.
Is the service available from Heathrow and all London airports?
Yes. The Mercedes V-Class runs to and from Heathrow, Gatwick, Stansted, Luton and London City at a fixed fare for the whole car. The fares, the free first hour after landing and the meeting point are in the airport section above.
How many seats does a Mercedes V-Class have?
Seven passenger seats behind the chauffeur. With every seat taken there is room for about seven large cases, one per person, with soft hand luggage beside them. A smaller group has space left over for a pushchair or golf bags.
Can the vehicle be used for daily sightseeing tours?
Yes. Book four hours or the full day for sightseeing in London; a day out to Windsor, Oxford, Brighton or the Cotswolds has its own fixed price on our day-trip pages. The route, the stops and the time at each one follow your own schedule.
Can I pay on arrival?
Yes. Choose cash to the chauffeur on the day, or pay by card, Apple Pay or Google Pay when you book online. Either way you pay exactly the figure in your confirmation, and business bookings can have an invoice in the company name.
What if our group is more than seven people?
Book two cars. A party of eight or more, or seven with extra cases, travels in two V-Classes or a V-Class with an E-Class on the same schedule. Each car has its own fixed price, shown before you pay.
Do child seats take up passenger seats?
Yes. Every child seat or booster is fitted in one of the seven passenger seats, so a child in a car seat counts as one passenger. Seats are available for every age, from babies to older children, free of charge on request.
Is one V-Class enough for a cruise group with luggage?
Usually, for up to seven people with one large case each. Cruise passengers often pack more, so if your party carries well over seven large cases, add a second car. The fares to Southampton and Dover are in the airport section above.
Can a wheelchair user travel in the V-Class?
Yes, when the passenger can move from the wheelchair to a seat with a little support. The V-Class has no ramp or lift, so the chauffeur folds the chair into the back, where it takes about the space of one large case. If the passenger must stay seated in the chair, tell us before you book.
