Why R5
How we work.
Precision timing
We plan each route in advance and track the flight on airport pickups. Built-in margin for the M6 on a Friday and the M25 on a Monday.
Complete discretion
Your chauffeur signs your NDA on request and never posts about a booking. If you prefer, we confirm pickups by registration rather than by your name.
Direct communication
No call centres, no overseas dispatch. You deal directly with the team that books the cars and briefs the chauffeurs.
Consistent quality
We keep a 94% same-chauffeur rate.
After you book.
Your confirmation arrives by email. On the day, the passenger gets a private tracking link that opens in the browser, with nothing to download. Manage my bookings holds your journeys, regular passengers and invoices.
