Taxis & Black Cabs. You’ve got these ‘black cabs’ which are formally known as Hackney Carriage taxis. Black cabs are highly regulated, number of drivers is limited by local authorities- Councils and it takes 3 years on average to prepare for and pass ‘The Knowledge’ – the London topography knowledge exam. Let’s be honest if you haven’t been driving in London for some time you may forget about becoming a ‘black cab’ driver. You don’t need to have 2nd one to start driving. The cab company will provide you with insured vehicle. Obviously they will charge you for it (~£35 a shift) How much money can I make? Considering 50hours+/week you can make anything from £250 - £400 maybe more, and that is after you pay the office you work for, after you pay you car and insurance. You have to remember that you work for yourself; you are not entitled to holiday pay anymore, so to get four weeks of holiday in a year, in eleven months you need to make money others do in twelve. There are specific Bonus Periods though. First it is a summer holidays- many airport runs, depending where you work, can be more tourists and more club, pub work as well. December was also considered as a busy month with lot of work and many tips, but in the past few year we could observe a major decrease in quality and number of runs in this festive period.
If Singapore beh sai liao, will go London....
We know each other by appearance lah... But his best friend (Every limousine drivers) is Limousine rate.... Haha. -

There are ONLY 9 LONDON CABs on the Singapore’s roads now.
Rental at $111.
Due to expiry March 2013.
SMRT “may acquires” New London Cabs…@ $132 (drivers have to support Corporate Jobs).
My insider news….. Haha.
You know what their corporate job is?
..As part of its initiatives to improve the lives of persons with disabilities, the Ministry of Community Development, Youth and Sports (MCYS) is inviting taxi operators to propose and operate a service that can accommodate different types of wheelchairs.
The London cabs are the only ones in Singapore that can fit wheelchairs which are larger than normal. With the pending expiry of their licences in March 2012, the cabs would have to be scrapped. Such wheelchair users would thus be left without a proper mode of transport...

Haha. U want?
Today, I saw this Pink London Cab stop by the roadside in Woodlands at 12:15pm while on the way home. Managed to take some photos. I think he worried that I take photo to stomp him, so he slowly drive forward and move on. JDIL, If you know him, tell him dun worry lah. -
I like the Viano, but now the price is like, so out of reach.
If want to get, what colour? Black or White?
Black looks solid but dark.
White looks clean, but common.
Dunno lah, just my thoughts only.

For vehicles related to the 3-pointed star, I would prefer them to be in black coz somewhat it really suits them..
