Tired of working hard but not earning what you should?
Feel like just another number where you are?
At Ideal Cars, we’ve built something different — and drivers are making the switch because of it.
We’re a busy, well-established private hire company with strong demand across the area, and we’re looking for reliable, professional drivers who want to earn more, work smarter, and be treated properly.
What You’ll Be Doing...
Completing private hire bookings across the local area
Providing a professional, friendly service to all passengers
Using our advanced dispatch system to receive and manage jobs
Working the hours that suit you — full-time or part-time
Keeping your vehicle clean, safe, and presentable
What You Can Earn
Let’s be clear — the earning potential here is real.
In the week commencing 16.03.26, a quarter of our drivers earned over £1,000 in fares… in a single week, with our top drivers taking over £1,750.
These figures do NOT include tips.
The better the service you provide, the more you can earn through tips — and importantly, tips are 100% yours and not subject to any commission.
Drivers earn from a mix of:
Cash and card payments taken directly in the vehicle
Prepaid app bookings
Regular account work (including schools, councils, and corporate clients)
But we’re honest about this:
those earnings aren’t handed to you — they’re earned.
The drivers hitting those numbers are the ones putting the hours in, working smart, and making the most of the demand.
The more you put in, the more you take out.
Fair Work Allocation – No Favouritism...
All of our work is dispatched fairly and equally.
Every driver is on the same commission structure
Every driver contributes the same to Ideal Cars
There is no incentive for us to prioritise certain drivers — so we don’t
You get a fair opportunity to earn, just like everyone else.
Self-Employed & Fair Earning Structure
This is a self-employed position, giving you full flexibility and control over your working week.
We operate a simple and fair commission model:
Drivers pay 20% of fares as a weekly board (industry standard)
Capped at £130 per week
This means once you hit the cap, you keep more of what you earn, unlike many other companies who continue taking a percentage on everything.
The more you work, the more that cap benefits you.
Built by Drivers, for Drivers...
Ideal Cars isn’t run from behind a desk by people who’ve never done the job.
Our team has over 30 years of combined experience as drivers, so we understand the reality of the job — the good days, the frustrating ones, and everything in between.
That’s exactly why we’ve built a company that treats drivers properly, communicates clearly, and avoids the common issues you’ll find elsewhere.
Why Drivers Choose Ideal Cars
Consistent Work, Less Waiting Around
We keep you moving — no wasting time sitting idle.
Driver-Focused Approach
We actually listen. You’re not just a number here.
Flexible Working
Work when it suits you. You’re in control.
Strong Earning Potential
High demand = more jobs and more income opportunities.
Support When You Need It
Our team is always on hand — no chasing, no being ignored.
No Car? No Problem...
Don’t have your own vehicle? That doesn’t need to hold you back.
We have established connections with trusted partners who can supply fully licensed, ready-to-work vehicles, so you can get started without the upfront hassle.
Vehicles are available on a weekly rental basis
Costs will vary depending on the type of vehicle
As rentals are provided by third-party partners, pricing is arranged directly with them
Don’t Have a Private Hire Licence Yet? No problem.
We can guide and support you through the entire process of getting licensed — from application to approval. If you’re serious about getting started, we’ll help you every step of the way so you can get on the road and earning as quickly as possible.

Valid Private Hire Driver Licence (or willingness to obtain one — we’ll help)
Aged 25 or over (required for insurance/rental options)
Less than 6 points on your DVLA driving licence
