I am currently a private hire driver working with a Volkswagon Sharan.

I have been thinking about the Eurocabs and what they are like. Is anybody able to answer a few questions about them?

1. How much are they to buy brand new and second hand?
2. Where are the best places to purchase new and second hand ones?
3. How are they to drive?
4. Can you make more money as a hackney driver than a private hire driver working the same hours?
5. If you are licensed as a hackney driver in one county can you pick up in another county if you are waved down?

If there are any other things that anyone can tell me about these vehicles I would be grateful.

Thanks

1. I think they range (from new) £15,000 - £20,000. Second hand they range from £1 to £15,000.

2. Most of the contact details can be found in the trade press. Try TDO's link pages.

3. Not a lot different from anything else IMO.

4. Why not do both?

5. You can pick up anywhere, but you will only be insured to do it in your own manor. :wink:
