AUSTIN TAXI

Austin Taxi - 418

page last updated: 26 October 2008


There are a few Corgi Taxis but this is the first, 1:47 scale, nothing opens but it's the best by a long way, really nicely modelled. The scruffy one on the right turned up in a mixed lot I bought for about a pound, just to get a set of wire wheels. Now what do I do with it? It has a driver, which the other one does not. Don't know if it means anything but in the 'Great Book of Corgi' the taxi sold on its own did not have a driver in the picture, but the one sold in the London Gift Set did. Anyhow he's very smart with a bright yellow waistcoat and a bow tie.
