Why Umair Started This
Before Grand Executive, Umair worked in private hire. He saw the same problems every week. Cars arriving dirty. Drivers arriving late. Wrong vehicle sent. No communication the night before. Clients standing in the dark at 4am wondering if anyone was coming.
He did not write a business plan. He bought a Mercedes. He started texting clients the night before. He arrived 10 minutes early. He loaded every bag. He opened every door.
Clients noticed. Not the car. The process. The text at 8pm confirms the 4am pickup. The photo of the vehicle 2 days before a wedding. The driver who knew their road without a sat-nav by the third booking.
That is how Grand Executive grew. Not through advertising. Through the text the night before.
What Makes Us Different
We are not the cheapest. Not the most expensive. We are the ones who send a photo of your car 48 hours before.
Competitor review: “Promised S-Class. Sent E-Class. Found out at the door at 4am.” That is why we sent the photo. Another: “Car not cleaned. Dirty tissues. Broken armrest.” That is why we photograph the interior. What you approve on WhatsApp is what arrives at your door.
What Happens After You Call
You can call or WhatsApp +44 7356 049464. Where, when, how many. Fixed price in writing.
48 hours before
Photo of your exact vehicle on WhatsApp. Interior. Exterior.
Night before
Driver texts. His name. His number. Confirms time.
On the day
Outside 15 minutes before. Loads every bag. Knows your route.
After
One invoice. Corporate accounts after 3 bookings. Monthly billing.
Our Address: Visit Us
124 Woodlands Road, Sparkhill, Birmingham, B11 4ET. Not a PO Box. Not a virtual office. Real building. Our vehicles are parked here. Visit us. See the cars. Meet Umair. Then decide.
Our Drivers
Every driver is enhanced DBS checked. The highest criminal record screening in the UK. This is not optional. It is mandatory for every driver on our team.
Your prom car hire driver who carries your 16-year-old? DBS checked. Your VIP chauffeur who signs an NDA? DBS checked. Your wedding chauffeur who helps your nan out of the car? DBS checked. Your hourly hire driver who waits outside 5 meetings? DBS checked.
They do not just drive. They arrive early. They load bags without instruction. They know Colmore Row underground parking and NEC Hall 3 east exit and the Bird Street approach to Lichfield Cathedral. They know because they drive these routes every week. Not because they checked Google Maps this morning.
Our Licence PHO 00324
PHO licensed. Licence number: PHO 00324. Verify at your local council. DVSA crushed 20 unsafe prom limos (GOV.UK). Wolverhampton seized an uninsured Mercedes for prom hire. 15 miles from Birmingham. Our licence number is PHO 00324. Our insurance is real. Our COIF certificates are real. Ask to see them. A real company publishes their licence number. We just did.

The Question You Are Really Asking
You are not asking, “How many cars do you have?” or “When were you founded?” You are asking:
“If I book these people for my wedding, will the car actually turn up clean, on time, with ribbons, and a driver who knows the venue entrance?”
“If I book them for my daughter’s prom, will the driver be safe, DBS checked, and the Hummer be the one in the photo?”
“If I book them for my MD’s roadshow, will the driver know JLR Lode Lane and NEC Hall 3 without sat nav?”
Yes. Yes. Yes.
Photo 48 hours before. Named driver. Texts the night before. Arrives early. Loads every bag. Opens every door. The car you approved is the car that arrives. That is the answer.
