Carbodies Black Cab.
What to Check Before Buying.

The Carbodies Black Cab, produced until the company became LTI in 2010, remains a familiar sight on British roads as the classic London taxi. Built for durability under demanding commercial use, these vehicles can rack up extremely high mileages, often exceeding 300,000 miles. While robust by design, their hard-working history means potential buyers must carefully inspect suspension components, steering systems, and bodywork for corrosion. Private buyers considering converted or decommissioned examples should be especially thorough in checking service history and structural condition.
