TBH, you can have the best motor there is, but if you don't look after it it will let you down.

Ooops looks like the 'blonde moment' is rubbing off on everybody or maybe I just wasn't clear in my ramblings (probably the later). It was meant as if you were just starting in the taxi game in London your HC had to be under 3 years old. For those who already have a HC this didn't matter and it wasn't the intention that you should change it every 3 years either.



I'll stick with The Knowledge as a quality control. :wink:


That's great init when the cab you're isn't fit for the purpose you can take great comfort in having The Knowledge of knowing this. :lol: There should be a countywide rethink of HC/PH Taxis the regulations need to be brought into the 21st century. Whilst I appreciate that London is in a way different to the rest of the Country it should not by any means be exceptional


how is it exactly?

roads, punters, traffic islands, erm, and?.....

TBH this is another thing I don't really know why they think they are different but they do and they keep going on about it so I kinda thought that if I mentioned that they were different it would stop the barrage of comments about how they are different. I did also say that they "should not by any means be exceptional". IMO I think because their knowledge test is so much more difficult to learn that is what makes them feel a special case.
