About This Taxi Cab
Check Availability for This Taxi Cab
A closer look at this Taxi Cab, finished in Black with Grey interior
This Austin FX4 Heritage Black Cab brings one of Britain's most recognisable vehicles to the wedding day. With its traditional black coachwork and classic taxi styling, this Welsh Black Cab is a great option for couples looking for something different from a conventional wedding car.
The cab can carry up to 5 passengers, all seated in the rear passenger compartment. There is no passenger seating available in the front alongside the chauffeur, so the whole wedding party travels together in the rear.
One of the most useful features of the FX4 is its easy access passenger area. There is a step at the rear passenger entrance to make getting in and out easier. The cab also has a moving fold-down passenger seat which can be positioned towards the entrance, as shown in the photo gallery. This can make seating much easier for a passenger with limited mobility, reducing the need to move further into the rear cabin before sitting down.
The spacious rear cabin also makes the FX4 practical for wedding dresses, bridesmaids, groomsmen or family members travelling together.
Based in Barry, South Wales, this Austin FX4 combines the character of a heritage London-style taxi with the practical passenger space and accessibility that made these cabs such a familiar sight on British roads. The cab is available for weddings within approximately a 30-mile radius of Barry, covering areas including Cardiff, Newport and Bridgend.
