There are numerous earlier posts on this thread.
Everyone to their own choice-I always tip good drivers in the UK,maybe a Ł5 for a short trip-more if 50 miles.
and
normally AED25 in Dubai
but I would never tip in other Countries where tipping is not common,such as Japan

Tipping isn't expected in most circumstances in Australia so I've never done that here. In the UK I usually don't since they make much better money than a taxi driver for the equivalent work.

I got an Opel Insignia the other day on arrival in LIS on a Y Flex Plus that I upgraded to J.
It was actually a very nice car and I thought it was a Merc or an Audi till I got out and checked at destination and realised.

Thank you, thread updated.
Was it the estate or the saloon? I just googled it and it's a car I certainly would't mind being chauffeured in.
Cheers for the tip btw, main post has been updated.

It is now illegal in Europe for companies to use just a premium rate numbers for customer numbers - must start with an 01x 02x 03x or a mobile or freephone number .
