We seem to have no time to stop, think and plan these days. Or do we?
Chauffeur Drive: Not really something new, but if you haven’t tried it, you missing out.
A quick history: The term “chauffeur” comes from the French term for stoker, because the earliest automobiles, like their railroad and sea vessel counterparts, were steam-powered and required the driver to stoke the engine. Early petrol powered motor cars, before the advent of electric ignition, were ignited by ‘hot tubes’ in the cylinder head which had to be pre-heated before the engine would start. Hence the term chauffeur which, in this context, means something like “heater-upper”. The chauffeur would prime the hot tubes at the start of a journey, after which the natural compression cycle of the engine would keep them at the correct temperature. The chauffeur also maintained the car, including routine maintenance and cleaning, and had to be a skilled mechanic to deal with breakdowns and tyre punctures en route.
Today, people sometimes employ a Chauffeur to drive themselves in their private vehicles or you could use our CABS Chauffeur Drive. Also a professional service offered in a range of cars driven by your own CABS chauffeur. This is very similar to but more organised than taking a taxicab. A variety of benefits are cited for using chauffeurs, including convenience, productivity, time savings, and driving safety for the corporate business people, events leisure groups or just simple holiday makers that could make use of the Chauffeur Drive service for their entire holiday period.
