Baz.
There are quite a few left,as I said,although they were not produced in vast numbers,the quality and toughness is such that pro rata,possibly more of them survive than mass produced cabs.Did you see the owner in Warrington ? he may be a member of the London Vintage Taxi Association ! There is a bloke near Bolton who has several old cabs,and does a bit of dealing in them.Warrington was once in Lancashire as well,I had a bit of a set to with a clever policeman in the Cheshire force who said that this had never been the case,a real knowall,but then he was only about 40 
Thanks for the pictures,breaks the monotony (if you know what I mean) 
GOZZ.

4 Beautiful cars.
The Rover in the background of Baz's pic reminds me of my first car.
1946 Rover Fourteen, bought for my 21st birthday by my now late father for £10 (a lot of money in 1967) I never did get to master the "freewheel" though, but oh boy that early aircon was a hoot.

I'm not a day over 40 Craig, I'm a lot of days over but don't feel it.
You know the saying.....you are only as young as the woman you feel, .........or something like that.
