Default Copperleaf Red 75 Diesel Tourer - Southampton Taxi

Just had a ride home from Southampton Parkway station in an 03 Diesel tourer.

I was about to get into the one first in the rank , but then spotted the 75 taxi behind. It's the first time I've been in a 75 taxi (though Flyer graciously took me from my hotel in Glasgow to the airport once in his own old pride and joy - so that's kind of close)

I gave the driver some info on the car he was driving, and suggested he check out the club forum for top tips, so if your reading this, welcome along.

What a way to travel home

There's a couple of 75's in the Moray area used as taxis in fact there's loads of 75's here in general. It's funny how you never notice a particular car until you've got one yourself lol

Hey hey, I wonder if he's looked in on the club yet? He got very excited when I told him there were How To's on changing the rear discs, and that he could increase his 116 BHP in a variety of ways via certain club members.
