cardinal Posted October 29, 2016 Report Share Posted October 29, 2016 I see people so excited to move from X to Exec or Exec to Lux but is it really such a big difference taking in consideration the amount of extra costs you have?? I mean its all comes to £/hour. Driving for X you can get £20/hours while driving for Exec or Lux i dont think you can get more than £30/hour if youre lucky. Who can disagree or agree?

Johny Posted October 29, 2016 Report Share Posted October 29, 2016 its complicated, in the end its about drivers choice : drive economical car and get the max profit or drive a comfortable car and get the same profit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LUED Posted November 1, 2016 Report Share Posted November 1, 2016 Don't buy an Exec car just to upgrade, as you still have to do X and Pool jobs. Probably only 1 in 10 jobs will be an Exec job. Also don't buy a Lux car specifically for Uber unless you already have your own clients, and you just use Uber in your downtime to make a little extra beer money when you wouldn't have been doing anything anyway. danthedriver and admin 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, but don't forget the feeling of driving a brad new E class after you had a shit job all your life Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imperator Posted November 3, 2016 Report Share Posted November 3, 2016 Many drivers are doing this just part time, maybe 40%???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LUED Posted November 4, 2016 Report Share Posted November 4, 2016 Most Exec and Lux drivers work for other operators, and/or have their own clients, and use Uber to fill in quiet gaps during their working day/week, so, they'll be working for Uber part-time.
