Looks nice, why 'taxi'? Are you going to actually use it as a taxi?

 

[Taxi350]

Dunno that's how it will be funded I guess lol

Well bits staring to arrive/fitting so new springs n shocks all round, went with oe shocks n apex springs, oe rear discs n pads with bearing ect new wipers n still waiting for brembo front pads n grooved 280mm discs. Also took exhaust off cleaned joints up n refitted n sealed it, it's getting there slowly

Afraid not, this is the taxi that funds the 182,
