The chauffeur company will explain excess payment details to you when they call to confirm pickup time and baggage requirements.

The chauffeur company can take payment via phone or you can pay the driver cash/card. In Glasgow the card payments in car are done via the drivers ipad.

You can request it. You might not get it!

The usually honored requests are for things like Viano MPVs when you have a lot of luggage/pax.

Vianos are sometimes used for moaners etc, unless of course they are first class in which case they ain't allowed unless specifically requested.
