London style taxi cabs for Bahrain

Posted: 03-02-2009 , 09:40 GMT

taxiBahrain has launched a new taxi service using London style taxi cabs imported from the United Kingdom-based LTI Company. The newly set up taxi company, the Arabian Taxi Company (ATC), will launch its services with a brand new, purpose-built, 200 strong fleet.

I am assuming these 200 cabs have now arrived in Bahrain?

Regards

JD

Is there any truth that unmodified TX4's are to be imported to the Gaza strip shortly, then driven across into Israel (saves on rockets apparently) :mrgreen:

Am I right in thinking these TX4's have 2.4 Mitsubushi engines?

Maybe this is the test bed for the TX5?
