Comments from the seller

Historical genuine classic London Black Taxi. Perfect for weddings, hens' nights and winery tours. Imported from UK (still with original plates). She is mechanically sound , but like many older classic personalities, could do with some cosmetic work. She currently has a headlight rim missing (awaiting replacement from UK). We have fitted a flip-down front passenger seat (not standard) so there are enough seats for 7 people. The back has the classic flip down seats (with interchangeable posters that come with it) and is wheelchair friendly. Sun roof and air-conditioning. Nissan Diesel engine. We actually do not know how many miles she has done, because she came out from London. Imagine the celebrities that have sat in her! She has been used for many a wedding, so, she could even earn you some money. She was built for neither comfort nor speed, but is all class and causes a sensation wherever she goes. If you like to stand out, she might well be the gal for you.
