Unlike other security firms, we use our own vehicles for secure UK travel. Our high-end fleet currently includes:
All our vehicles are classy but discreet. You wouldn’t know which was ours in a line-up of luxury limousines outside Harrods.
What can’t be seen is that they’re specially adapted for security use. Some automated systems are deactivated, such as auto-immobilisers. This ensures the vehicle is always under the control of the driver. Also, if a client plugs in their cell/mobile phone to charge, the car won’t automatically download any data or track their location. We can provide passengers with a temporary burner phone and laptop if required.
Elsewhere in the world, we carefully select the vehicle and security driver we use. Each situation is unique. To blend in, we might provide a luxury limo, a soft top car, or even a local taxi. If required, we can supply an armoured / bullet-proof vehicle – the downside is that an armoured vehicle is less manoeuvrable. We’ll make a recommendation based on the threat level and the risk assessment we do in advance.
We can also provide backup vehicles and drivers for the wider team (the principal’s inner circle and other security personnel). In addition, a support vehicle is sometimes useful for running errands, acting as a decoy, and in case evacuation is necessary.
Whatever vehicle is used, you can be sure our driver will know it inside out and be familiar with all the controls. That means, if things go wrong, they know how the vehicle reacts under stress and can respond accordingly, maintaining safe control even during severe manoeuvres.
We’re able to track the driver from our Head Office so we can access real-time itinerary status and update you while the client is en route.
In addition, many of the vehicles we use are fitted with first aid kits, AEDs, and a full trauma pack – just in case. And our security drivers are trained ‘first responders’ (or the equivalent in whatever country they’re in) so they know exactly what to do in an emergency.
