Thanks so much for your comment. I really appreciate it. I am glad that you have had such a good experience with your TX1. I think that they are great cars, especially if you want a ramp. I hope that you keep watching and I look forward to hearing from you again. There is more Jaguar content on it's way.

Thanks for the comment and the support

Fantastic information. Thanks so much for the comment. I really appreciate it.

@@DannsBangers You're welcome, by the way a bit more info. After the TX1 model with the Nissan engine which was brought over from the "Fairway" FX4 series the TX2 follow up had the doubtful Ford Duratorq engine (timing chain issues plus rather noisy even for a diesel engine) and after that the model number went straight to the TX4 (there was no TX3 but not to be confused with the FX3 from the 1950's) it had some body revisions including notably a bigger front radiator grill. The TX4 basically had two engines in its life, firstly the VM Motori 2.5 litre euro 4 then it was updated to euro 5 compliance. The last version of the TX4 had a more powerful version of a VM Motori engine which was a 2.8 litre and was euro 6 compliant, all diesel by the way. As an aside power steering became standard in the earlier versions of the famous shaped FX4 taxi which was before the Fairway series but still years behind ordinary cars. Such was the stupid and archaic ways of the then London licensing regime known as the PCO, the Public Carriage Office, in respect of eventually allowing it under the London COF...Conditions Of Fitness. Now the reason why it took so long for the purpose built taxi in London to get power steering.... you won't believe this.... was because of the tight turning circle on a London type taxi and the pen pushing morons considered that a driver might flip the cab over if he or she turn too quickly too fast. To say they were, and to some extent still are, antediluvian is an understatement. They are now called LTPH, London Taxis & Private Hire, the reason for the name change... the minicabs as they were known then were unlicensed but they were eventually licensed some twenty years ago as PHV's.... Private Hire Vehicles (and the drivers) hence the name change. Ok i'm off for a cup of tea and a biccy.... that's a biscuit.

@@licensedtaximan4271 Thanks, that is much more information about Taxi's than I will ever know. Thanks so much, once again.😀

Thanks for this, hopefully this will help people who want or need these great cars. My review video will go up later today so please let me know what you think of my thoughts about it.

That is really good information. Thanks so much for you comments.

Oh! Just called Churchill to insure my 2010 TX4 ex London taxi and.....guy says policy is DECLINED due to nature of vehicle. Mentioned guy above going Churchill and he replied 'well I can't see how they managed to get insurance as once the system tells me DECLINED there Is no option no way of me overriding system, so unfortunately we will not be able to insure you'!!!!!! Did guy above in this post REALLY get insured by Churchill?

Thanks so much for the comments. Yeah, they can be a pain. My clutch also failed. They guy who bought mine removed the vinyl but yeah I agree to try to find one that isn't wrapped.

This video assumes that the answer to that is yes. My review video will be about "should you bother to get one". The answer may surprise you! It probably won't though.

Shame that it has succumbed to the rust. Hope you find a good TX4. Send us a picture of it when you get it. Thanks for the comment.

Yeah, I would suggest you pay a bit more and get a lower mileage one but even then it is probably going to be over 200k miles.

Thanks for the visit and the comment.

Thanks, Hopefully this will help future owners

I think many people share your opinion. I like the LTI TX4 and I will go through exactly why in my review video. Thanks for your comment.

Well, I am not going to unwrap the car because it's new owner (yes, I have sold it) wanted a pink cab. It is navy blue underneath though. I am going to do the review video with it when the weather is nice as the new owner is a friend of mine.

AH, yes. I was waiting for the first guitar comment. Indeed it is my first guitar which is an Eko from the mid fifties. So I guess you haven't clicked the bell icon then! Thanks for watching, great to hear from you.

@@DannsBangers No I don't use notifications for any KZfaq channel but I might for yours now, although usually your new videos show up straight away. I had an Eko 12 String years ago but not as old as yours, I think it was possibly from the late seventies. Sounded great but incredibly hard on your fingers that guitar!

Yeah, I just got rid of my 12 string because I wasn't playing it enough. I agree they hurt if you don't play them enough. Sound lovely though. Thanks for your support. I love having followers like you.

It shouldn't be that bad as those engines should have plenty of torque. The TX4 had plenty of go as long as it was kept under 60mph. Maybe someone who has a TX2 can help you

Wow, that is good. I bet you stand out driving it around town in Poland. Thanks so much for your comments it is great to hear from you.

Yeah so a little correction. The manual is £180 but that is for 6 months So for the Driver, Bronze, Silver, Gold and Style trims; Manual £340 per year Automatic £585 per year

@@DannsBangers thats the nail in the coffin for me on buying one , now i know the tax ,its crazy and i dont get why having a manual should be any different to a auto , as the auto was my preferred choice anyway .anyway back to plan B

Well my slogan is "Making bad decisions so you don't have to". I guess that I have succeeded. Thanks for your comments and I hope your search goes well. My review video is going to focus on who an ex-taxi is good for because I think for some very specific use cases it is the perfect car.

@@DannsBangers i agree if the tax was lower ,it would be perfect for so many reasons . cheap parts etc , like anything you have to way up its costs per year . mind you it would be still interesting to know how many miles you get to the gallon and to the tank. full to empty

@@ArtyVanHoming That is a good point that I missed. This is all a learning experience for me. To answer your question. It isn't great on fuel. But I can't know exactly as the odometer is broken but I recon (as my journey to work and back is 57 miles mainly by motorway) that I was getting less than 30MPG. I used about 1/3rd of a tank there and back.
