Default Anyone a Chauffeur or know much about it? 7 Series Beemer or Merc S Class / CLS?

As title, anyone do / done any chauffeur work / executive car work? Maybe airport runs as well?

Thinking about ways to top up my income or possibly a new career path altogether. I currently drive a truck, but fancy something different so have just completed a CPC course, meaning I may spend more time in the office managing our small fleet. In my spare time / weekends I fancy going self employed as a Chauffeur / Exec car travel.

Wondered if anyone has done it or knows someone doing it? Is work good? Any tips of the trade, suggestions or advice on cars / insurance / finding work welcome.

I'm considering a Beemer 730d, poss LWB model, or maybe a S Class or even a CLS (they look amazing, but not sure on interior space thanks to the shape?)

Chatted to one guy who ran my Transport Manager's course, and he's just buying a 2nd car to back up his current spare time Merc S Class Chauffeur car. Seems to be working well for him

Ideally I'd love to work for just a few select clients, but airport runs etc would be ok if necessary to boost the income.

Any thoughts welcomed

Si
