What 8-seaters work for in London

  • Family airport transfers — 8 passengers + 8 cases in one vehicle, no splitting across cabs
  • Hen and stag parties — single vehicle from venue to venue, no taxi-rank scramble
  • Sports teams — squad + kit + manager in one car
  • Corporate group transfers — meeting attendees, away days, evening events
  • Theatre + dinner groups — multi-stop West End evenings

Mercedes V-Class — the premium 8-seater

Our flagship 8-seater is the Mercedes V-Class — premium people carrier, leather seats, individual climate controls, large luggage compartment, and a quieter ride than larger Sprinter minibuses. The V-Class is the choice for executive groups and family premium transfers.

8-seater fixed-fare routes: London → Heathrow from £95, London → Gatwick from £125, London → Stansted from £130, London → Luton from £125. Hourly: from £55/hr (4-hour minimum).
