I believe that's right John. But what good sound judgments the lads at LTI have made. You have an overpriced product that fewer and fewer cab drivers want. You have competition eating into your market place. Where you have/had a monopoly, it appears to be going. So what do you do? You go on strike. 
Now what sort of a union would go along with such stupidity?

They reject a 2.9% increase, they way bit fall off them I dont know why their paid at all. put a decent engine in the bloody thing and reduce the price by about £12K stop dealers from selling licenses would be a bloody good idea too |

Have it on good authority that M&O Bristol have closed the doors. When LTI are finished, the PCO regulations will follow? Then party time for Eurocabs. Captain Cab |

If LTI had proper competition, then their products would be vastly improved, and cheaper. But they have p***ed off so many in the trade, I think there days could be numbered. However in my very honest opinion, I don't think Cab Direct are that much better.

A lot of people use this forum to slag off the TX 11,and maybee they are justified. But be honest with yourselves and try to think of the last time you was delighted with anything ? It dosent seem to mater if its Double Glazing,Holidays ,The new Car,The Local Plumber, or anything else you care to mention. The consumer is getting Shafted left Right and Center and tose that are doing the shafting dont give a T*#ss. |

Fletcher, I happen to own a TX, (well in about 3 years I will), I'll curse and moan about it, but it makes me a living. The thing is, we can whinge and moan on here till our heats content, because the people we bought them off dont give a toss. Be Lucky Captain Cab |

Mick Brown, a shop steward who has worked at LTI for 31 years, bemoaned the way workers were treated. “The quality of the vehicle has got better in recent years but the moral of the workforce has gone down,” he said. Hmmm, obviously he doesn't get to take one home at weekends then, must be part of the sleeping nightshift. |

why build taxis that nobody wants? An apt thread to bring back to life 4 years down the line? Those were the days when CC owned a real Taxi.
