One vehicle for the whole group
Trying to coordinate three cars for one group is harder than it sounds. One leaves late, another takes a different route, and someone always ends up waiting outside on their own. A 7 seater taxi solves that. Everyone gets in at the same door, travels together and arrives together. With up to eight seats in our long-wheelbase MPV, it covers most extended families, work teams and groups of friends in one go.
Popular group journeys
Airport runs for big families
Three generations flying out together, or two families sharing a villa, often need eight seats and a lot of boot space. With every seat in use, plan on about six large cases. The long-wheelbase body gives more room behind the third row than a standard MPV. Group bookings to Gatwick and Stansted are especially common, as both are long journeys where travelling together makes sense.
Sporting and racing days
Motspur Park sits close to some big sporting venues. The Epsom Downs racecourse is a short drive south for Derby weekend, Twickenham is reachable for rugby days, and Wimbledon fills up every summer for the tennis. A group car avoids crowded trains and the scramble for taxis after the final whistle. Agree a return pick-up point in advance, as roads near venues often close to traffic.
Weddings, parties and nights out
Bridesmaids heading to the venue, guests returning to a hotel after the reception, or a birthday group going into central London for dinner. Book the return journey at the same time and the car is waiting when the evening ends.
Is a 7 seater the right choice?
| Your group | Best fit |
|---|---|
| Up to 3, light luggage | Saloon |
| 4–6 with luggage | 6 seater taxi |
| 7–8 people | 7/8 seater MPV |
| More than 8 | Two vehicles, booked together |
If you are on the borderline, think about luggage first. Six passengers with a week of holiday cases may still need the larger MPV. Tell us the exact numbers and we will confirm.
Splitting the fare? A fixed price agreed upfront makes it easy to divide between the group, and one person can pay by card before the trip.
