Brand activations, press days, fashion week, music tours, broadcast coverage. Talent in the Sprinter, principals in the Range Rover, crew in V-Class — co-ordinated through a single producer-side contact. NDA-bound chauffeurs as standard, holding patterns pre-mapped, no social media, encrypted itineraries.
Production & events
A production move is not a series of taxi journeys. It is a single co-ordinated event — multiple vehicles, multiple talent, multiple holding-points, all running against the same minute-by-minute call sheet.
R5 was set up by people who came up working productions. We co-ordinate fleets through a single producer-side contact: one number, one chauffeur-lead, one shared itinerary that updates in the moment. Holding patterns are mapped before the day; alternative routes are agreed; the cars know the back-of-house entry to the venue before they leave the depot.
Every chauffeur is NDA-bound as standard, briefed on the production's requirements at the start, and signed off by the producer before the call. There is no social media, no "driver pictures with talent," no exceptions. The point of the work is to disappear into the production schedule, not to feature in it.
Fleet roles
The standard production fleet, in the order it usually rolls. Adjust as the brief requires — we'll add additional vehicles for talent overflow, dancers, hair-and-makeup, security or distribution.
The Monaco Sprinter rolls as a green-room on wheels — reclining leather, dimmable lighting, ambient cabin, fridge, full curtains. Talent boards once and stays in the bubble between shots, interviews and venues.
Our Range Rovers are the principals' car. Director, executive producer, sponsor's senior delegate. One step removed from the talent vehicle but moving on the same plot — presence without conspicuousness.
The V-Class handles unit moves — producer plus runners, hair-and-makeup, kit. Conference layout for the brief en route, full luggage capacity for the return when wrap is at half past midnight.
How we work
The things that don't usually appear on a chauffeur company's marketing page — but that producers ask about first.
Every chauffeur signs and is briefed under non-disclosure at the point of joining. Production-specific NDAs added for the duration of the brief if required.
No Instagram, no Threads, no "driving today" stories. Zero exceptions. The chauffeur's job is to disappear into the production, not to publicise it.
For sensitive briefs we'll communicate by registration plate alone — itineraries on encrypted email, no client names in dispatch.
Holding bays, back-of-house access, alternative routes, decoy vehicles — all agreed with venue security before the call sheet locks.
Call-sheet additions and last-minute changes pushed to chauffeurs by encrypted channel. No WhatsApp groups. No accidental forwards.
You speak to a single named producer-side lead from briefing to wrap. Every change goes through them; every chauffeur reports to them.
What's included
The operational details are arranged once with your producer-side lead and then run through the entire production without further input from you.
One named chauffeur-lead embedded with your production team. Carries the call sheet, briefs the cars, signs the wrap.
Three to twelve vehicles run as a single fleet. Holding patterns, run orders, departure stagger — all set before the call.
Every driver signed off under the production's NDA at the point of brief, briefed on requirements at the call.
Itineraries, call-sheet revisions and talent-side changes routed by encrypted channel. No leaks via group chat.
For multi-day productions we hold capacity in advance; the cars are yours from depot to wrap with no third-party draws.
Single PO covers the production. Itemised wrap-report with hours, distance and chauffeur sign-off delivered within 48 hours.
A partial list
Brand activations, broadcast coverage, fashion week, brand films, music tours, talent campaigns. Specifics held under NDA — the logos are what we're allowed to mention.
Fleet pairing
The three vehicles that move most productions. We add as the brief requires.
Green-room on wheels. Reclining leather, ambient lighting, fridge, curtains, conference layout. The bubble between shots.

Questions
Forty-eight hours is comfortable; twenty-four works for most briefs; we have run press-day moves on six hours' notice. The earlier we have the call sheet, the more we can pre-map — but the operation works at any tempo.
Yes. Every chauffeur is on a standard R5 NDA already; we'll countersign your production-specific document for the duration of the brief and brief every chauffeur on its terms before the call.
Up to twelve from our own fleet, more with held capacity from trusted partners. For most productions we run three to six. The single-point-of-contact model holds at any size.
Yes — the operation moves with the brief. Manchester home depot, but we have run productions in London, Edinburgh, Leeds, Birmingham and across mainland Europe at brief.
Single PO against the production, settled net-30 from delivery of the wrap-report. The wrap-report is itemised by chauffeur, hours, distance and signed off — no "extras" introduced after the fact.
Yes — that's the default. The talent car holds its chauffeur for the duration; the principals' car the same. Continuity is the point.
