"Rolls-Royce contractor, I fly Ryanair from Southend to Malaga regularly and always need a taxi to Moor Lane Sinfin DE24 for early Monday morning. Executive car, driver takes the M25 then straight up the M1 and off at Junction 24 onto the A52. Two hours exactly to the Rolls-Royce gate. He knows every entrance and security approach. Tried the train once — Liverpool Street, St Pancras, Derby station, then another taxi to Moor Lane. This is incomparably better. Fixed price, no surprises, always punctual."

"University of Derby student, my family are in Rayleigh. Fly back to Southend from Amsterdam at the end of every semester. Saloon, driver goes M25 and M1 and A52 straight to Kedleston Road DE22. One hour fifty-five minutes, perfectly on time for check-in. He knows the campus entrance and the car park drop-off zone. I tried the train from St Pancras at Christmas. Two changes with a large suitcase and a guitar. This service is the only viable option for me. Fixed price, polite driver, always clean car."

"Derby resident, we fly from Southend to Faro most winters. Saloon, driver up the M1 and A52 to our home in Allestree DE22. Two hours door to door from Southend arrivals. He knows Allestree perfectly. We tried the train from St Pancras once. Then a taxi from Derby station. It added an hour and was very expensive for two of us with luggage. With this service the fixed price is the same as two train tickets and we arrive at home, not at the station. Immaculate car, professional driver. We've used this four times now."
