Cars for Stars named as a preferred supplier for The X Factor

Leading luxury transport hire provider, Cars for Stars, has been named as a preferred supplier for the hit ITV talent show, The X Factor.

Cars for Stars specialises in the provision of top quality chauffeur driven transportation and has a history of supplying vehicles for hire profile events often chauffeuring celebrity names to awards ceremonies and red carpet events.

Not surprisingly, Cars for Stars were singled out by the hugely popular reality TV show to provide chauffeur driven limo hire for a contestant appearing on the programme’s sister show, the Xtra Factor presented by former X Factor runner up, Olly Murs.

Cars for Stars supplied a top of the range cream coloured stretch Chrysler limousine, also known as the Baby Bentley limo, for filming in London for the Xtra Factor. The chauffeur driven limo was needed to transport an X Factor contestant, although the name of the contestant being chauffeured for the filming has remained top secret.

However, Cars for Stars will be able to reveal all about the contestant’s identity once the segment airs on ITV2 in the coming weeks. We’ll also publish exclusive behind the scenes images from the filming in London featuring the Cars for Stars limo on here very soon.

The X Factor returned to our screens with a new judging panel at the end of last month. Louis Walsh is the only original judge from the 2010 series to make it to the this year’s series and is joined by new faces including Destiny’s Child singer Kelly Rowland, Take That singer and songwriter Gary Barlow and N Dubz singer Tulisa. The show is proving as popular as ever despite the judging panel shake up with the opening show drawing in 12.6 million viewers at its peak.

Limo Broker the first to launch national online pricing service for limo hire

www.limobroker.co.uk has become the first luxury transport provider in the UK to offer online pricing for limo rental in all parts of the country.

Offering live pricing for limo hire trips across the UK is no mean feat. While regional limo hire providers with just a handful of vehicles may be able to set up an online pricing system with relative ease, when you throw a fleet of hundreds, possibly even thousands of limos and chauffeur cars into mix, plus factoring in the issue of journeys taking place in all four corners of the country, real time online pricing becomes a whole different ball game.

To coincide with the introduction of the new limo online pricing systems, Limo Broker has announced the launch of their brand new website, www.cheaplimohire.co.uk. The transport hire operator paid a premium for the highly sought after domain name which will ensure a high level of optimisation for the new site. A highly optimised website is a major asset for any business as it means the company is highly visible online which in turn, generates extra traffic in the form of potential customers to the site.

The new Limo Broker websites feature high quality images and videos, also brand new logo design and state of the art graphics making the site extremely user friendly and accessible. The luxury look of the site, coupled with the online pricing systems for national limo hire elevates limobroker.co.uk above the competition. The company is anticipating an increase in business of 25% as a result of the new website and pricing scheme.

Check out the brand new website now and see for yourself how easy it is to obtain a competitive limo hire quote via the new system.

Rebekah Brooks rumoured to be keeping her chauffeur driven car

Former News International Chief Executive, Rebekah Brooks, will allegedly keep her chauffeur driven limo, paid for by her former bosses, despite claims on both sides that ties have been severed between the ex News of the World editor and Rupert Murdoch’s media empire.

43-year-old Mrs Brooks resigned from her top job at New International in the wake of the phone hacking scandal this summer. Rebekah Brooks left her position as editor of the Sunday tabloid after allegations emerged that the voicemail of murder victim Millie Dowler was hacked by journalists at the newspaper while was in charge.

However there have been suggestions that the relationship between the former newspaper chief and her old boss is far from over amid claims Rebekah Brooks will keep her editor’s perk of a chauffeur driven car for the next two years.

Despite publically stepping down, there have been reports in the press that Rupert Murdoch plans to find a senior position for Rebekah Brooks once the phone hacking scandal has died down. In the meantime the media mogul has allegedly told her ex editor to take time out and travel the world.

Although reports that the 43-year-old is still on New International’s pay roll are thought to be false, it’s believed she will keep her chauffeur driven car as part of a confidential severance package deal from the company where she worked for 22 years.

Car rental firm trials electric bike hire

Leading car hire provider, hertz, have just launched a new transport hire in service in London offering electric bicycles for hire on a trial run basis from its Marble Arch rental outlet.

Hertz have started off small with their bicycle hire scheme with just 12 of the high tech folding bikes available to hire from the city car rental centre. The ultra modern bikes can reach a top speed of 15.5mph and cost just £20 to hire per day.

The bikes are able to fold away neatly and so can be used on public transport when stowed away properly, and also feature a special sensor which detects how fast the rider is pedalling and then matches its speed with its power in put.

The bikes are supplied along with a helmet, lock and charger which allows the bike to be charged up from a domestic electric socket.

The car hire company say the electric bike hire service offers an economical and environmentally friendly travel option for those in the city. Travel by bike can often be speedier in the city as congestion on the roads often leads to lengthy queues so travelling by bike is a great way to beat the traffic.

If the pilot electric bike hire scheme proves a success, Hertz may roll out the service in other bike friendly cities such as Amsterdam amongst others.
