/24-7PressRelease/ - DALLAS, TX, September 30, 2007 - No city has as distinct a
fleet of cars for hire as London. New York yellow cabs may have attitude, but they don't match
London cabs for old world style. Style or no style, it takes a groom with chutzpah to suggest to a Dallas bride-to-be that a cab is
the perfect wedding day transportation. If he intends to get to the alter, he had better be quick to explain that he means the stylish cab by
London Taxis International from
DFW Elite Auto Rental.com.
"It's a fun and wonderfully elegant car for a wedding," said Jennifer Knittel, business manager for DFW Elite Auto Rental.com. "Being chauffeured in our new
London cab rental made me feel like I was queen for the day. It would be an ideal car to take friends to a
Harry Potter premier or to add some fun to retrieving a business associate or spouse from
Dallas-Fort Worth International," suggested Knittel.
"Seeing a
London cab in Dallas is about as unusual as finding a cactus in a rain forest," said DFW Elite Auto Rental.com owner
Ron Sturgeon. "I usually
drive a Ferrari or a Lamborghini, but nothing I've driven lately has generated as many questions and requests to pose for cell phone photos as our new
London cab rental."
"The first question is how we managed to get a London Cab as part of our
luxury car rental fleet," remarked Sturgeon. The
LTI British taxi with black interior was originally manufactured by a company that has been making taxis in Coventry since 1948.
London Taxis of North America, a company in Chicago, legally imported London taxis starting in 2003. Jesper Jorgensen, Advertising Sales Director for LTNA, estimated that approximately 250 London taxis have been imported to the United States so far. The imported London cabs have been modified to be left hand drive and to comply with U.S. emissions standards.
"The second question is almost always, 'Can we get the
London taxi for my wedding?' We're expecting the LTI to be among our most popular
Dallas wedding car rentals this spring, along with our new
Bentley GTC and
Aston Martin V8 Vantage Convertibles.
"In addition to weddings, the London cab has the distinctive looks to be very popular with area advertising agencies and photographers. "The London cab is camera friendly and should be popular for trade shows and photo shoots," predicted Sturgeon.
"Ron Sturgeon is spot on when he refers to the attention that London cabs get. It's this attention that makes London cabs ideal for mobile billboards because a custom wrapped London cab literally makes people stop, turn their heads and look," said Mr. Jorgensen.
