How much are rentals down in the smoke now mate? Also how much is it for a 3 mile cab journey? I'm trying to get some commparisons together of all the UK's towns and cities and what they charge for cab rentals and a 3 mile cab journey.

If you see smoke coming down the M1 don't worry it's only my brain burning. :lol:

Wouldn't the 3 mile journey depend on how many times you got stuck in traffic or at lights :?

I'll always do you a deal Nidge. :wink:

I haven't rented for a long time now, but I believe for say an 05 TX2 Silver, you'd be paying about £200 - £210 a week on the flat (full time)

A 3 mile journey at night with free flowing traffic would set you back about £9ish.

You would be the perfect Minicab customer.

Right up your street. :D

Just like your choice of hotel in Sussex gardens. Did you get fleas whilst you were there?
