What is it?
Are these journeys ‘one way’?
Riddle me this, riddle me that. I have given enough clues....its not one way!Are these journeys ‘one way’?
Most of my staff are ladies, and it really is not what you think! Oh, and we make them very happy!
Will look at the CX more im depth. Any other classic suggestions?
If you want to carry 5 passengers in style with easy entry you really cannot beat a Model X.
On the way to your destination you can explain to the clients how through VAT write off and soon low BIK tax rates the X, 3p per mile in fuel cost, its probablly cheaper to own than a posh transit van!!
So style, progressive, and cheap, what else do you want.
We have a full car quite alot of weekends, it really is a superb people mover, keeping everyone happy on a long trip is always a balancing act, but in the X its very very easy, people just relax.
When your moving/parked it blends in pretty well with the Germany brands, quite alot of people who haven't heard of Tesla assume its a BMW.

Out of country men who leave a lot of money. Not too flash, but comfortable.
Get something "British"
Jaguar XJ
FFRR / RRS
of an appropriate age to not look too flash.
It willneed tocarry max 2 passangers. The short list up to now:Get something "British"
Jaguar XJ
FFRR / RRS
of an appropriate age to not look too flash.
Jag XJ (series 3 or x350)
W126 long wheelbase
FFRR
Citroen CX Prestige (worried here about the rust and general fragility)
Citroen C6
Audi A8 (D 4)
Lexus LS 600 h (scores hybrid brownie points)
Still on the list but towards the end the XC90 and the T6/ V Klasse.
Am I overlooking anything? Any contenders for possible future or allready classic with potential value gains?

Clientele is mostly men, out of country and they leave quite a bit of money. They come from all walks of life and most have saved a long time for the service.
I do not want something over the top posh, as I do not want to produce feelings of “ all this over the top luxury is with my money”. It needs to be classy but understated and have some coolness factor to it. A lot of people regard huge SUV’s as “too much”.
The V Klasse or T6 are reasonable options, they just lack the classy part.

So a big black estate car then... ?

Get a top of the range Skoda Superb from 2010-2013. Very affordable.
Huge area for rear passengers. Anonymous, elegant and reliable.
The Phaeton or an A6/S6 is a good shout, as long as it’s in black and is polished within an inch of its life when you pick them up I don’t think they’ll be all that fussed.
Whenever I’m in a taxi or the like the cleanliness and OCD nature of the interior clean impress me over a dusty (but newer) posher car
