The Wikipedia page for the metrocab is a bit bare. Nows your chance to fill it out with extensive Metrocab knowledge...or at least get your pic of your cab on the page.

Love it! What engines do these use?
Dependant on age either a 2.4 Toyota or a Transit 2.5, a pal and I double tracked one back in Manchester for 7 years as we couldn't afford an FX4 ours was an E reg as well. We put 400,000 on it in 7 years in my opinion a far better vehicle than the competition and very underated as a cab. t400ble said:
I'll post some more pics if anyones interested?
You ridiculous idiot, this is Pistonheads - of COURSE we're all interested! Get some more pics up! I love it!Reminds me of a couple of black-cab experiences I have had over the years.
First one - in the late 70's when I was 7, 8 years old - a mate at school's Dad had loads of kids, and at the time there were no 'People Mover' vehicles available...so he bought an ex Black Cab to ferry the family about it. I have many good memories of being driven to school in it!
Then 10 or 15 years ago, a chap at a local garage had a highly-modified TX 1 dragster....it was awesome, fully tubbed back-end, monster tyres, huge V8 with a supercharger sticking up out of the bonnet. Mad!
