http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... K:MEWAX:IT A TX1 with under 50K, for under £10K. That's a deal and a half, I'm tempted myself. 
It's a former SO8 Met Pol vehicle, so will have been main dealer serviced all it's life with little use. Anyone wanting a TX, I'd think about this one. It may even be Euro 3 converted for London. |

There are some 1989 G reg's owned by the fleet people. 
However, all 21'000 (apprx) London taxis are now Euro 3 emission compliant, irrespective of age. When the new 10 year limit comes in around 2015 (Probably be a 12 year limit after negotiation) its goodbye pensioner taxis ltd, and lots more work for those drivers who are willing to invest in their trade by running a new taxi.
