Isn't the reason for the Ford that the new Peugeot isn't big enough?

I thought the new Peugeot's were massive? They're selling them as the biggest Taxi on the market. Try getting one in a different colour to black.

Cab direct sales person told us the new expert can't be converted for some reason.

It's incontrovertible. :lol:

I think the Ford E7 looks fine.

Hate to think how much it will cost.

£33,395
If they use the same seating arrangement as voyager, it will be an eight seater (passengers) as well.

Some lads round here have them from Voyager and to be honest they look well nice, plenty of room for the driver and loads of room for 8 passengers plus luggage. There's also the underfloor ramp for wheelchairs.

I don't like the ford. Much rather have an E7 the bit I don't understand that the new model is to small to convert
So how did Nissan convert the NV200 for the London taxi market. That's much smaller
I think if I wait a different company might do the Peugeot at a later date. If not will have to be the transit hope they sell them with a full set of ladders almost 2foot high for ground to cab floor level not very friendly for older people

I was thinking the same thing, they also use the NV200 in New York (I would Buy One)

They have running foot bars for them to get in. I'd sooner have the Ford over the E7 any day of the week.
