Description: London taxis are famous worldwide, especially the "black cabs" that roam the city streets. It was just over 100 years ago that the first motor cabs hit the streets of London and this excellent book tells the story of the development of the London taxi over the ensuing century. It includes the devlopment history of and full technical specifications of major models and prototypes. Perhaps the most intriguing models described are those that never made it into production, but it is the long drawn out hunt for a replacement for the FX4 that will amaze readers.
