Taxis

RE: Taxis
Liverpool is now down to two Metrocabs, the 03-reg one having been withdrawn.

The Ford Tourneo is now up to ten licensed examples, overtaking the Renault Trafic into fourth place for popularity.

The register is also now down to having just two (genuine) R-registered taxis and four S-reg, plus of course the two N-reg and the remarkable G-reg. The driver of G965 EHC pulled up alongside my F-reg Nissan Micra at the traffic lights a few weeks ago, and we got into a conversation about our similarly-aged vehicles; apparently his taxi has done over 1 million miles (dwarfing the Micra's meagre 40,000!) I don't think this one is going to be disappearing from the register any time soon - it's good to see a cabbie enthusiastic about keeping this iconic marque alive.
