This is a souped up London Taxi

This was running a Lexus V8 but it's now been broken for spares as the rot had taken hold.

I used to work for the PCO (Public Carriage Office) and remember one of the garages which maintained taxi's (Pool Motors) had a yellow one with a stonking American V8 in it.

Can mini-cabs use the bus lanes? Or just proper black cabs?
No they are not allowed.
I remember that the minicab drivers complained that they couldn't use the bus lanes and I agree that they shouldn't. Could you imagine 70K minicabs (obviously not all at the same time) using bus lanes. Buses wouldn't have a chance to move.
