Cabby's can be anything from £500 to £5000+ depending on what state it's in. I'd say between 2-3k for a decent one, 3-4k for a top one and anything above that for one that's had a lot of mods done and maybe an engine transplant. 

Cabs are wicked, you'd love it. :cool: I had one for four years and I'd still have it now if I could have afforded to keep it along side my Rallye and my camper.

Black cabs FTW!!!!





As diane said, welcome to the dark side!!!  :evil:

as gibby says you can pay peanuts or top dollar. As with top dollar it is presumed you shouldn't get as many problems.. but this is down to condition of the car!

I know nothing about cabby autos but I'd personally always go for a manual.
