Most people begin with the vehicle they like the look of, then discover the luggage does not fit. It is worth starting from the other end: how many passengers are travelling, how much luggage there is, how far you are going, and who the journey is for. The vehicle follows from that.
Business Class — Mercedes E-Class
Our most frequently requested class, and the natural choice for one or two passengers on airport transfers and business journeys. The E-Class offers a comfortable, quiet rear cabin and capacity for normal cabin and hold luggage, without the additional presence of a larger saloon.
- Solo business travel and everyday airport transfers.
- Two passengers with two cases and hand luggage.
- Regular corporate travel where consistency matters more than statement.
Premier Class — BMW 7 Series and BMW i7
Premier Class sits between Business Class and Executive Class. The BMW 7 Series delivers a noticeably more spacious rear compartment and a higher level of technology, and the fully electric BMW i7 adds near-silent progress — well suited to long motorway journeys, calls in transit, and organisations with lower-emission travel objectives.

Executive Class — Mercedes S-Class
The S-Class is the choice where presentation and rear-seat comfort are the priority: collecting clients or investors, senior executive travel, and occasions where the arrival is part of the event. Rear space, ride quality and cabin quietness are its strengths, and it carries a similar luggage load to the E-Class rather than substantially more.
When to choose Executive over Business Class
- The passenger is a guest of your organisation.
- The journey is long and comfort matters throughout.
- The arrival itself has an audience — a venue, a client office, an event.
Executive MPV — Mercedes V-Class
The V-Class answers two different problems: groups, and luggage. It seats up to six passengers comfortably with generous luggage capacity, which also makes it the sensible option for two or three people travelling with unusually large loads — golf clubs, ski equipment, exhibition materials or family holiday luggage. Passengers travelling together as a group also tend to prefer being able to talk face to face.
Luxury SUV — Range Rover
Available on request, the Range Rover offers a commanding, elevated ride with substantial rear space and luggage capacity. It suits country venues, less predictable weather and journeys where an SUV is simply the preferred style of vehicle.
A simple way to decide
- Count the cases, not the people. Luggage is the usual reason a class needs to move up.
- Ask who the journey is for. Your own commute and a visiting client are different briefs.
- Consider the distance. Over an hour in the car, rear-seat comfort stops being a luxury.
- Mention anything unusual. Child seats, mobility requirements, bulky equipment and multiple stops all affect the choice.
