I don't know, but if you can find an address for them please pass it on so I can send them an Xmas card. :wink:

Must be my hormones cos I can't think of a single clean version of what that AGMA could possibly stand for ................... Or maybe I've just been working with perverted men for too long! But of course none of them come on this site they are all total "gents" :wink: :wink:

Why does it NOT mention ALL area plate values? Bit selective, it would appear. Let me help. A plate sold in Lincoln last Summer for £2,000.

Very interesting Statistic in Lincoln.

30 hackney carriage vehicles 44 licensed hackney carriage drivers

over 220 private hire vehicles and around 500 private hire drivers.


And yet there is no demand for Hackney carriage plates? How many on the Waiting list Jimbo? Presuming Lincoln has a wating list?

I will answer your questions when you acknowledge the plate values in Lincoln. Your figures above are innaccurate, not surprisingly.

I think logic might dictate that there may be some interest from the 500 or so private hire drivers in requiring a hackney plate considering Lincoln go to such lengths in protecting access to them?

If you tell me which of the DfT stats are wrong I'll let them know? lol

I don't know the plate value in Lincoln and it wouldn't be fair to accept one persons word without confirmation, would it?

Do you think the DfT forgot about Dougie Harbord's horse and cart? I think so. You can't always rely on DfT stats.

Pity you didn't attribute the figures to the DfT.

Your feelings on NOT attributing are well known?

lol We're not talking about unsubstantiated claims jimbo, we're talking about a fact you made. Unless you have a puppeteer pulling your strings you needn't involve anyone else? lol
