If only it were that easy. the best thing to do is to get hold of one of the trade magazines and ring up a few places that advertise. or go to the TDO home page at this address,
http://www.taxi-driver.co.uk/
And look for the links on the left hand side of the page.

I sold mine on Fleabay, 2 weeks later the guy had a rant


"we used it for a week now it wont start"

(am i the fking AA?)

"you said it had a FSH, where is it?"

(look in the "Invoice folder" I gave you)

"Ebay buyers are always right, what you gonna do about it"

(send you Ebays protection regs which state NO COVER ON VEHICLE SALES or CASH SALES)

You advertised it at £2400 with 6 months tax, I paid £2400 with no tax, how come?"

(cos i let you)


Then, to add, I said there was a crack in the chassis he should get checked as it might be unsafe


:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
