You pay per car, not per passenger. Your exact fixed price appears on the booking form as soon as you add your address and date, and it stays the same whatever the traffic.
Pickup from your door
From Milton Keynes the drive of about 1 h 5 min means a pickup around 3 hours before a short-haul flight is a safe choice: about 2 hours is left at the airport once you arrive. For long-haul, add another hour. You are collected from your home, hotel or office, help with bags is included, and child seats cost nothing extra. Heathrow has four terminals: 2, 3, 4 and 5. Terminals 2 and 3 share the central area, while 4 and 5 sit on their own, so check that the terminal on your booking matches your ticket.
Arriving back
On the way home from Heathrow to Milton Keynes, the driver follows your flight's real landing time and meets you in the arrivals hall of your terminal. You get 60 minutes of free waiting from landing, and airport parking is included. Selecting "Return" when you book covers both legs and takes a discount off the return.
