Not a back seat but a room, generous, sociable, and built so a travelling party arrives together, having spent the journey in each other’s company rather than in rows.

Suited toGroup travel, face-to-face

The chauffeur
Held to one standard.
Every Mercedes Benz V Class on our fleet travels with a chauffeur on UMC payroll. Vetted, trained, and held to a single standard. They hold the door, they know the route, and they keep the cabin composed, however full it is.
Employed by UMC, not contracted, not supplied by a platform.
Routes are planned before the engine starts; airport arrivals tracked from departure.
Silence is the standing instruction; conversation on request.
