Taxi Driver Online

See the cover story on the latest latest copy of TAXI under the my LTDA link.

You know the LTDA don't you? That's the London only trade representative body that has 10 times more members than the national GMBPDB can manage.

Should I mention that?

I hope the Metro Cab 'green' happens, but one has to wonder if this is yet another false dawn.

I'm wondering if the Facina's, as in Cab Direct are behind this venture? They must be doing well since Edinburgh relaxed their COF.

Perhaps well enough to back this project?

GBC if you get one you will have to get used to the new nick name
wa#ker with that engine under the hood

if it goes into production I hope the price is sub 20k otr

You can mention the National GMB PDB as many times as you like, its very kind of you to give us the free advertising.

I'm sure you are aware, that the National GMB PDB will use it's resourses to help it's members both locally and Nationally.

It's also worth mentioning that the GMB PDB do not discriminate against any individual whether Hack or Private Hire.

Regards
BB

Unless their religion comes into it.

Ask your boss about that offer.

I don't think it's got anything to do with the old TTT group.

Any choice would be welcome. I only hope the power unit will be up to the job. I still beleive the E7 would be the best alternative.

£40K ?? What TX4 model was that? The Silver comes in at around £34.

Well GBC there is only one way to get it and thats fight the PCO, FFS its about time the turning circle was dropped as a requirement as from where I stand thats the only thing thats stopping you getting one

So the alternative power scorce for backup and rechargeing the batteries is the Wankel engine.
Does it not make you wonder why the Wankel is not heard of much?
Why? Because it is a load of crap.
From what I have seen of this new cab. It definatly tastes of Metrocab.

They have been making them for years

Problem is who is going to risk £30 odd thousand for a totally new unproven concept, I'll rent one first.............
