Taxi dealer reports record fleet sales figures for March

A leading taxi dealership is celebrating having announced a single-month sales record of 60 new 08-registered TX4 taxi’s delivered to fleet operators in March.

LTI Vehicles flagship main dealer, Mann and Overton London, is enjoying strong demand for its iconic TX4 taxi as fleets decide to upgrade their old Fairway and TX1 vehicles.

Taking delivery of the 60th TX4 was Jason Chillmaid, owner of Hackney-based J&J taxis. “I’m delighted to be improving my fleet with the TX4,” said Jason. “This will be the third TX4 that I’ve purchased this month, adding to the firm’s fleet of 100 vehicles. It enables J&J taxis to keep up with current trends and to provide my drivers with the best vehicle for the job. The TX4 allows London’s drivers to pick up passengers in improved safety and comfort.”

Peter Rigden, General Manager at M&O London, said: “This new record reflects a successful first quarter for the next-generation London taxi. It has been achieved through a variety of promotions launched by M&O including low rate finance deals and an unprecedented Fairway / Metrocab replacement offer. We will continue to work hard to offer our customers the best service and support to ensure this success continues throughout the year.”

LTI Vehicles is universally recognised for giving the UK the ‘London black cab’. The latest version of the famous vehicle is the TX4. Confidently hailed throughout the world, it features a host of refinements over previous TX models including a more powerful engine, enhanced suspension and a range of added safety features.

M&O London is based at 39-41 Brewery Lane, London N7. For further information, visit mannandoverton.com.
