The car and the chauffeur

One car. One chauffeur. Every booking.

There is no fleet behind this page. There is one person and one car, and the entire proposition is that you know which ones before you book.

The coast road south of Sydney at the Sea Cliff Bridge, the escarpment on one side and the ocean on the other
The Grand Pacific Drive, south of Coalcliff. Twenty minutes slower than the motorway and worth every one of them.

04:41

The car arrives in silence.

04:41, Mosman. The car is at the kerb without a sound — already twenty-two degrees inside, the panoramic roof shaded, the Bowers & Wilkins audio holding the playlist the passenger sent through before the last booking. Parag is at the door before they are down the path.

The bag goes in the boot. The door closes the way doors close on heavy cars — once, with weight. By the time the car is on the Spit the cabin lights have gone down to amber, and the phone has been put away.

This is what OSPIPO actually is. Not a fleet, not an app, not a list of drivers waiting to be dispatched. One sedan. One chauffeur — Parag Sharma, eight years in private hire, NSW Booking Service Provider authorisation BSP-462516. The car you book is the car that arrives. The hand on the wheel is the same hand that was on it last time and will be on it next time.

The car

Stated once.

These are the numbers, and they are the same numbers on every page of this site because every page reads them from the same file.

Passengers 3 three adults, comfortably — this is a sedan, not a people mover
Large bags 2 two large checked suitcases in the boot
Carry-on 3 in the cabin, not the boot
Range 583 km Sydney Airport to Jervis Bay and back on one charge
Power 340 kW all-electric, no engine noise
Colour Frozen Deep Grey the same car every booking

Three adults, two large checked suitcases and three carry-on bags. That is the honest limit of a sedan, and it is the limit whether the booking is a wedding, a hospital appointment or a 4am flight.

Why one car

The conventional wisdom in this trade is fleet: more vehicles, more bookings absorbed, higher utilisation. OSPIPO is deliberately the inverse.

What passengers here are actually paying for is not the badge on the bonnet. It is recurrence. The person who collected you from Tuesday's Singapore flight is the person collecting you the Tuesday after next. The route is remembered. The preferred terminal, the preferred coffee stop, the preferred quiet — none of it has to be explained twice.

The cost of that is honest and worth stating: there is one car, so there is a diary, and sometimes the answer is that it is already somewhere else. The fare engine on this site shows real availability rather than implying there is always another vehicle.

Why electric

583 kilometres of range covers Sydney Airport to Jervis Bay and back on a single charge, which is the longest run this business does. The car is charged to 100 percent before every departure — there is no fuel stop, and no version of a 4am pickup that begins at a service station.

Inside: heated and ventilated leather, four-zone climate with independent rear settings, a panoramic glass roof, Bowers & Wilkins audio and USB-C fast charging at every seat. Outside: no engine noise, which on a two-hour pre-dawn drive turns out to matter more than any of it.

Zero tailpipe emissions. A Sydney to Jervis Bay return in a comparable diesel sedan releases roughly 88 kg of CO₂; in this car it releases none at the road. For an organisation counting Scope 3, that is a line in a report rather than a paragraph of apology.

Why fixed

The fare you see at booking is the fare you pay on the day. Tolls, GST, the NSW Passenger Service Levy and airport fees are already inside the published number.

There is no surge. There is no after-hours surcharge dressed as a fuel levy. There is no rounding up to the next quarter-hour, because nothing is being timed. Helensburgh, Wollongong, Kiama, Berry, Jervis Bay — the published number is the invoiced number.

Price predictability is not a feature of this service. It is the service.

Who Parag is

Eight years driving private hire across Sydney and the South Coast — most of it quiet, some of it not. Trained the way good hotels train concierges: read the cabin, anticipate the question, hold the silence when silence is what is wanted.

Owner of the business and operator of the car, with no daylight between the two. A complaint goes to him. A compliment goes to him. A flight that slips ninety minutes at 3am goes to him. One point of accountability, with nobody to hand it to.

What booking actually feels like

Two addresses, a date, a time, a name and a mobile. The itemised fare appears before you type any of it. Under ninety seconds on a phone.

No account. No password. No app. No card, at any point — you pay your chauffeur on arrival, by card or cash, and a GST tax invoice follows the same day.

Then a message from Parag confirming it personally, usually within thirty minutes. Until that arrives, what you have is a request rather than a confirmed job, and this site says so rather than showing you a green tick and hoping.

What this is not for

Groups of four or more. More than two large checked suitcases. Surfboards, bicycles, flat-packed furniture. Passengers who must remain seated in a wheelchair. Medical transport needing clinical supervision. Convoys and multi-car movements.

Being told that now is better than discovering it at the kerb at 4am. If your booking is bigger than this car, say so and you will be pointed at someone who can carry it.

Questions

Before you ask.

One car and one chauffeur, on every booking. There is no fleet, no dispatch pool and nothing subcontracted, so the sedan described on this page — 3 adults, 2 large checked suitcases, one named driver — is what pulls up at your kerb. What you are paying for is recurrence: the person who collected you last month already knows the route, the terminal and how much conversation you want, and none of it has to be explained twice.

Parag Sharma, who owns OSPIPO and drives every job himself after 8 years of professional private-hire work across Sydney and the South Coast. The business holds NSW Booking Service Provider authorisation BSP-462516, issued by the Point to Point Transport Commissioner, and ABN 87 148 128 771 appears on every GST tax invoice. A complaint, a compliment and a flight that slips 90 minutes at 3am all reach the same person.

Range and silence, mostly. 583 km on one charge covers Sydney Airport to Jervis Bay and back, and the car leaves charged to 100 percent, so no pre-dawn departure begins at a service station. Zero tailpipe emissions turn a Scope 3 line into a figure an organisation can report rather than apologise for. Inside, no engine noise on a two-hour run before daylight matters more than any specification does.

Groups of four or more, anything beyond 2 large checked suitcases, and oversized items such as surfboards, bicycles or flat-packed furniture. A passenger who must remain seated in a wheelchair needs a WAV operator, medical transport with clinical supervision needs a patient-transport provider, and convoys or multi-car movements need more than one sedan. Say what you are moving and you will get a straight answer, which beats finding out at the kerb at 4am.

Under 90 seconds on a phone: two addresses, a date, a time, a name and a mobile. The itemised fare appears before you type any of it — Sydney Airport to Wollongong is a fixed $341, with tolls, GST and the NSW Passenger Service Levy already inside that figure. No account, no password and no card details at any point, because you pay your chauffeur on arrival and cancelling before pickup costs nothing.

The booking form shows that slot as unavailable rather than taking it anyway. One car means the diary genuinely fills, and availability here is read from the real diary instead of dressed up to look endless. Notice is the only lever that helps: a fortnight ahead of a 4am departure is a different conversation from a same-day request, and asking costs nothing either way.

No question matches that. Try a shorter word, or ask the concierge.

Book it

Book the car you just read about.

It is the same one. That is the whole idea.
