The two occasional seats faced forward. A 'driveaway' chassis-cab was also supplied to outside coachbuilders. Several shooting brake ('woodie') bodies were made, as well as newspaper vans for the three London evening papers, the Star, News and Standard. Built in 1955, this FLI was professionally restored and converted to a Shooting Car, by specialist trimmer Northumbrian Leather of Newcastle on Tyne, based on the FL1 the shooting car has received a full restoration, and a period of recent recommissioning in our workshops.

It was designed to comply with the Metropolitan Police Conditions of Fitness for London taxicabs, but was used in other towns and cities in the UK. It was commissioned from Austin by taxi dealers Mann & Overton and built by Carbodies of Coventry on a chassis supplied by Austin. The first prototype, the FX had a 1.8-litre sidevalve engine that proved inadequate for the job. The second prototype, the FX2 had a 1.8-litre petrol engine, but this was replaced by the third version, the FX3, which had a 2.2-litre ohv petrol engine.

  • Ceredigion County Council's Response To: the Law
    CEREDIGION COUNTY COUNCIL’S RESPONSE TO: THE LAW COMMISSION - REFORMING THE LAW OF TAXI AND PRIVATE HIRE SERVICES Background In July 2011 the Law Commission agreed to undertake a law reform project on the law of taxis and Private Hire Vehicles (PHVs). The Department for Transport (DfT) proposed the project, but in such cases the Law Commission is independent of Government. Consultation On 10 May 2012 the Law Commission published its provisional proposals along with associated Questions. All parties have until 10 August 2012 to submit responses. Proposals and Questions What follows is a summary of the Law Commission’s proposals. Proposed future action The Law Commission intends that its consultation will be its main information- gathering exercise. After the consultation, the Commission will analyse responses and reconsider this document’s proposals. The Commission aims to produce a report containing its final proposals and a draft Bill by November 2013. PROVISIONAL PROPOSAL 1 Regulation should continue to distinguish between taxis, which can accept pre-booked fares, be hailed on the street and wait at ranks, and PHVs, which can only accept pre-booked fares. This, in effect, represents the retention of the current, “two-tier” system. The main alternative would be a one-tier system in which a single category of vehicle would be able to take pre-bookings, to hail and to rank. A one-tier system would be simpler because it would avoid the distinction between regulation of taxis and PHVs. However, the Law Commission’s view is that it would require additional regulatory distinctions to be devised to accommodate the different range of services regulated.

  • The Role of LS-DYNA® in the Design of the New London Electric Taxi
    15th International LS-DYNA® Users Conference Automotive The Role of LS-DYNA® in the Design of the New London Electric Taxi Jamie Dennis1, Simon Hart1 1Arup (Advanced Technology and Research), Solihull, UK Abstract The iconic London taxi is known worldwide. The London Taxi Company (LTC) has produced this much loved vehicle for many years with few radical changes. Recently, zero-emission legislation in London and the global demand for cleaner vehicles has prompted an evolution in its design. With investment from owner Geely, the newly branded London EV Company (LEVC) will produce several thousand electric taxis per year from its new headquarters in Coventry, UK. The designers, Emerald Automotive Design (EAD), engaged Arup to analyse all structural and safety load cases. This paper discusses how the versatility of LS-DYNA and the modularity of the keyword file enabled Arup to use a single-model approach for all analysis - from full vehicle crashworthiness through to component- level durability checks - and how this facilitated an efficient division of activity between remote teams in the UK and China. The application of both explicit and implicit LS-DYNA to the various load cases is considered, together with the correlation against physical testing. Special challenges were posed by the requirement to comply with Transport for London’s (TfL) Conditions of Fitness and the need to protect the high-voltage components. Reliance on the LS-DYNA predictions was high, with few prototype stages afforded by the accelerated programme. Successful progression directly from simulation to legislative testing sign-off was achieved for cases including pedestrian protection. Arup’s use of LS-DYNA was key in bringing this lightweight bonded aluminium taxi to market, whilst minimising energy consumption and delivering a solution to the issue of sustainable city transport.
