    Your experience is very real and Uber has been like this for the past 2 years at least. I had to downgrade from S580e - £1200 monthly finance to the e300de - £800 monthly finance and now 6 months ago down graded again to an old 2017 VW Passat no finance. Making same money now on X, comfort and business comfort but more miles in total almost double miles and double the running round but outcome still £1000 weekly. Take expenses out and £700 week for 50 hours of running around. 😂 Edit: And no finance or debt which is the best bit.

    M8, keep doing your Uber job but whilst your driving around and working, study for the Knowledge test and become a black can driver. It's much much better. Truly self employed and much better pay

    I do deliveries with a moped like you used to do, when I was with a hired bike (mcsns) I was doing double of what I usually do because the moped wasn't mine and I wasn't putting miles on my moped. I think that you are choosing a lot, remember that car is not yours! Just go for it!

    Hi Mr Shark. Can you do something more entertaining in your new taxi videos such as film the journey & some customer interactions? This is just you talking in the car which is not entertaining me & also your old videos were very good in comparison. Thank you & good to see you back.

    • @MrSharK97
      @MrSharK97  6 месяцев назад +1

      Yes definitely you’re right! I’m looking for ways to improve the videos , it’s a bit tricky to get a customer interaction on camera at this level as privacy concerns for high end customers such as Lux and Exec.
      But I’m definitely looking for ways to make the videos more engaging and informative.
      Also it’s been a while I haven’t uploaded and the type of content is a bit different. With a bit of time I think I will find the right way to make the videos better.
      Thanks for your suggestion! 👊

    Не са ли малко £200 на ден за Exec и Lux и то за Лондон. Моят таргет в 100к град е £200 през седмицата и поне по £250 уикенда с около 10 часа работни на ден.

      Има много шофьори в тези кстегории и е трудно. Той също така много потбира, в един ден може да има £80 за деня, а в друг £400+. Вече са скъпи автомобилите, не е като 8к 3 годишен дизел с който не се притесняваш за милите и караш наред. С Uber X могат да се правят £200+ през седмицата и £300-350+ през уикенда за средно 10 часа ако знае къде да се разполага и как да потбира. Но при електрическите автомобили е проблем, скъпи разходи и малък пробег. За да достига такъв таргет с електрическа кола през уикенда може да се наложи да го зарежда 3 пъти, а след 5 години амортизация на батерията дори 4...🤯
