| Hi Now I thought the roomster was pretty practical, however couldn't believe it when i saw a black taxi roomster in glasgow this morning. Guess its a pretty economical taxi, albeit a bit funky looking Anyone else seen one, or seen one put to an interesting use?

| Don't see why not. In Newcastle all the balck taxis are Fiat Doblos. In essence they are the same spec, though the Doblo is a bit bigger. |

| Crap. Now I not going to be able to use the Taxi thing as a witty response to an Octy driver when they say the Roomy is ugly ![]() |

You could point out they are at times CRAP taxis. I had a recent hideous journey late at night in an Octavia. No turbo, no heater. Mopeds passed while I endured an arctic blizzard from the vents. OK, that was a one off. | |
