I have heard that these taxis are of a distinctive style, made similarly for many years.
They are typically black.

But there are other colors for taxicabs in London too I hear.

Always stay cheerful, be polite, kind, and understanding. Accepting yourself as the woman you are is very liberating.  Never underestimate the appreciation and respect of authenticity.  Help connect a person to someone that may be able to help that person.  Be brave, be strong.  A TRUE friend is a treasure.  Relationships are very important, people are important, and the sooner we all realize that the better off the world will be.  Try a little kindness.  Be generous with your time, energy, wisdom, and resources.   Inconvenience yourself to help someone.   I am a brown eyed, brown haired woman.

Kim,

Interesting, that is.

Many times.  Any time we went on vacation, always by train of course, we'd ride to the station in a taxi.  Most often, it would be the old Austin FX3 model.  The passenger (left front) side was open instead of having a door, and that was where the luggage went.  Though there was also a "boot" [Amer.: trunk] for small items.

When we emigrated to Canada, we spent a few days in London on our way to the ship.  The London cabs by that time were the newer, classic "black cab" design that most people are familiar with.
