My phone call to book was answered immediately politely and courteously. The taxi was dispatched immediately and I was told the exact time of arrival. The company texted me to confirm the booking, the car details colour and Reg and a link to track the cars progress to my location
So I didnt have to wait in the cold. A few minutes before the car arrived the driver called me and confirmed his arrival time and pick up location which was very useful. The driver was very helpful and helped my sons with their seatbelts. The car was clean and smooth. We arrived promptly and safely. Overall a first

Used them a few times. Friendly. Drivers are on time (often early which is good), safe and clean. Reasonably priced compared to other companies. They have however put up the price to the airport which I think is quite high and you can get a cheaper price elsewhere. They remain competitive for other trips.

Cheetah in general is a good company with good staff. However, we had an usual and awful experience with a driver who was driving in circles for almost an hour and who refused to let us out when we asked several times! Very strange and scary experience for myself and my children. He ignored us many times and he also ignored the controller's instructions when told to drop us off. Driver was terrified of going in congestion charge area and kept going in circles not knowing the area at all. I really hope i don't see that driver again. A simple route from cricklewood to kings cross should not take

I have been using Cheetah cars for years as I fly very frequently. Great service on the phone and in person. Always arrives on time and gets us to the airport and back with no issues!! We used to pay 45 now its 55 -59 to London Heathrow as I always travel with 3+ large suitcases and usually 3 passengers. Really happy and will be using them for years to come!!
