The short answer
Typically executive saloons, luxury saloons, luxury MPVs, luxury SUVs and ultra-luxury saloons. The class is chosen on passenger count, luggage volume and journey length.
A class is confirmed at booking and a preferred model is recorded. Specific models and specifications remain subject to availability at the time of travel.
Why it works this way
Chauffeur service is built on removing uncertainty, and that is the reason behind most of the arrangements around vehicle classes. Anything left vague at the booking stage becomes a decision someone has to make at the kerbside, which is the worst possible moment for it.
Presentation is part of the service. For a the booking the chauffeur arrives in business dress, the cabin is prepared with still water, and phone charging is available without needing to ask.
What to tell the desk
Give the specifics rather than the general shape. On vehicle classes, the useful facts are the ones that change the answer: exact addresses, honest counts, and anything already fixed about the timing.
Accurate details produce accurate quotations. For a the journey, the useful facts are the full pickup address, the destination, the date and time, the passenger count and the luggage volume. Anything else is refinement.
Where it varies
Availability, timing and location all affect what is possible. Peak dates, unsociable hours and remote locations narrow the options, which is why early notice matters more than the size of the request does.
Where a the booking crosses regions, the itinerary is planned as one continuous movement rather than a series of handovers, so luggage and passengers stay with the same vehicle.
Getting a definite answer
Describe your specific situation to the client service desk and you will get a specific answer rather than a general policy. Most questions about vehicle classes have a straightforward resolution once the details are known.
A the booking is priced on the journey as a whole rather than on traffic conditions, so congestion does not change the figure you agreed.
