It is plated as a private hire car, but it could be plated as a hackney if I wanted. It has a 1.4 litre engine and our council require a 1.25 litre engine or above. The car is used for taking a couple of kids to school and another couple of kids to college. It cost less than £1,000 to buy 4 years ago and has required very little in the way of maintenance since. £ for £ it is about the best earner of the lot. :mrgreen:
