See quite a few going around, the headrests are the only discernable difference from the back.

Seen the first one on Wirral yesterday. Nice looking cab, it's the entry-level Driver model, but it looks smart.

126 Wirral cabs before dereg 4 years ago. The plate on this new TX4 is 271, the cost of the cab is probably around £25,000 and he was just joining a permanently-overflowing rank.

Don't these new drivers weigh up the situation before putting their money - usually a redundancy pay off - into the taxi trade.
