They did. There's now a limit. From Virgin Atlantic:

WHAT IS THE RANGE OF THE CHAUFFEUR CAR SERVICE?

Any mainland UK destination in counties south of and including Lincolnshire, Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire, Staffordshire, Shropshire, Powys, and Ceridigion.

For UK addresses outside this range, the car will take you to/from the closest regional airport from the following list, and you will need to arrange a connecting flight: Inverness, Aberdeen, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Teesside, Newcastle, Leeds, Bradford, Manchester, Belfast, Isle of Man, Jersey, Guernsey.
