7 seater
7-seater taxi for family and group travel
Families and groups can request additional seating, with a Mercedes-Benz Vito or a comparable vehicle allocated where availability and the booking requirements allow.
Request this vehicle size9 seater
9-seater taxi capacity for larger parties
Nine-seat capacity can be useful when a larger party wants to travel together for an airport, wedding or event journey, subject to a suitable vehicle being available.
Request this vehicle sizeMPV
Flexible MPV taxi space for longer journeys
MPV-style vehicles provide extra cabin flexibility for local or longer-distance bookings when a standard saloon would not offer enough practical passenger space.
Request this vehicle size
For airport and long-distance journeys, tell us about luggage as well as passenger numbers.
Space matters
Allow enough room for passengers and luggage
A vehicle can have enough seats but still be too small for several large suitcases. This matters most for airport transfers, family holidays and larger groups.
Tell us about large cases, pushchairs or bulky items when you request the taxi. We can then consider luggage space as well as the passenger count before confirming the vehicle category.
- Tell us the total passenger count
- Mention large suitcases or bulky items
- Ask for group capacity when travelling together

Vehicle information
Taxi fleet questions answered
What taxi sizes are available?
Our vehicle categories include standard taxis, 7-seater taxis, 9-seater taxis and MPVs, subject to availability. The category allocated depends on the number of passengers and the usable space required.
Does a 7-seater always fit seven passengers and all their luggage?
Not necessarily. With every passenger seat occupied, luggage space can be reduced. For airport or long-distance travel, tell us the passenger count and amount of luggage so we can assess whether a larger vehicle is more suitable.
When should I request a 9-seater or MPV?
A larger vehicle can be useful for groups, airport luggage, weddings, events and longer journeys. Request the capacity you need when booking; vehicle allocation is subject to availability.
Can I choose the exact make or model shown on the website?
No. The images show the vehicle categories available for booking. We allocate a suitable vehicle by passenger and luggage capacity; a particular make, model or pictured vehicle is not guaranteed.
Can I book a larger vehicle for only a few passengers?
Yes, if extra luggage or usable space makes a larger category appropriate and it is available. Tell us what you need rather than choosing only by seat count.
Which vehicle is best for an airport transfer?
The right choice depends on both passengers and luggage. A standard taxi can suit a smaller party, while families and groups may need a 7-seater, 9-seater or MPV. See airport transfers for booking details.
Are larger vehicles available for weddings and events?
Yes, subject to availability. Larger vehicle categories can be requested for wedding and event transport, particularly when several guests are travelling together.
Are licensed taxi vehicles checked by Dorset Council?
Dorset Council requires licensed taxi and private-hire vehicles to meet its licensing conditions and inspection requirements. Current information is published on the Dorset Council vehicle licensing page.
