Mad video. Make sure you’re subscribed cos I’ve got more mad stuff coming. Also make sure you’re following me on insta: instagram.com/calvinscardiary?igshid=g9z6ay7i9v98
Put a insane engine in it and have the only one in the uk-world ? Well worth it be the best sleeper vehicle going. Or put tv -dvd in it a set of alloy wheels blacked out windows etc and take the less fortunate out in it as they have wheelchair ramps then give it to a charity as there are loads struggling and could help people in the long run. If I could I would love to one day. You could put it on planet of dreams and only charitys can enter for a change to win it
hey calv im areeb im 13 and ive help my dad start up 2 companys. I got an idea what you can do to your blackcab my near family friend uncle sal own a garage based around black cabs and taxis and mercedes. he recently converted his blackcab into a tow truck he took the rear seats out and he took the roof of which makes it look funny we do recoverys and claims managements and my uncles companys called gm taxi maintenance in manchester
You’ve got to pimp it out & use it as a courtesy car to pick up customers coming to Binca to buy a car. I’d get it wrapped in your companies logo’s, upgrade the wheels, tint the windows, install a good stereo system & whack a cool private reg on it. Imagine being picked up from the train station or airport in a pimped out cab plus your advertising your companies for all to see 😎😎🤘🏻🤘🏻
Then don’t comment on what u would do with one u can’t afford 😂. Typical. I got friends like u who say I should add a bigger turbo to my car, u make suggestions but are you paying for it! Hush ya gums 😂
902ash Can’t afford 😂😂😂 Yeah your a real funny guy. I’ve driven black hacks for 20+ years. The suggestion & IDEA (do you know what idea means ??) is to advertise & promote his business, improve the customer’s experience & convenience of buying a car & adding unusual content to his already excellent channel !! So why don’t you shut the f*ck up and stick to eating your crayons & Lego ya douchebag 🤦🏻🤦🏻✊🏼✊🏼💦💦
Mate vids sik as usual. Please don't loose who or what you are in trying to make the production better. We love Calv we don't want you to turn into Calvin Spielberg 😂 Big up Calv 💪💪💪👌👌👌
Been a fan of yours for a long time Calv, but honestly mate keep your videos how they were not a fan of this style seems to journalist. I’d rather you keep keep quality how it was but more regular uploads maybe 3x times a week? Cheers
I got extremely excited when I saw this, My dad’s a London black cab and has had a couple of these (now he has the the LEVC taxi electric one it’s so cool) I can’t wait to see what you will be doing. This will be fun to watch.
My uncle had a tx1 and it was over 600k bulletproof 2.7 Nissan engines. The tx2 have the less reliable 2.4 transit engines. I think you should chop the back off make it into a pickup and put a 335d engine in it
I bought a TX1 taxi with 2.7 naturally aspirated Nissan diesel in it for £300. Was MY2001. Had 632,000 miles on it. Was on its second engine and rotten as a pear but I used it to move house and then sold it on after a year. Great fun to drive around in. Legally they have to take the meter out when it is sold for private use so that's why the light does work. Mine was rare 5 speed manual but was still slow af 🤣
Had me worried at the end there, thought we weren’t gonna get the iconic outro with the “Samzy - nightmare” instrumental and one of your m cars. Love the increase in production quality as long as you keep a similar outro. It’s too iconic at this point 😂
OK ykw... I actually think that buying an old London black cab to use as a personal car is a really good idea. They're really cheap on eBay, they have plenty of passenger space and also decent storage space as well. I'm not joking, I would genuinely buy one.
Hey Calvin, I bought a black cab also but can not find the Vin #, can you help where its located? I want to drive this thing legally in the states. Any help is appreciated
The Top Gear Live Taxi, as you’ll probably be able to work out from the video above, isn’t your run-of-the-mill London cab. Beneath that iconic exterior lurks a Mitsubishi Lancer Evo VIII FQ-360 which has been set up for low-speed drifting - as TV presenter Chris Evans found out when he went for a ride with Top Gear’s tame racing driver, The Stig. Food for thought go for Guinness book of world records fastest black cab
They are great vehicles, purpose built for picking up a variety of people (up to 5 ) and can carry wheelchair bound passengers aswell. Sadly people have chosen uber as their preferred way of getting around London so more and more of these classic vehicles are coming onto the market as the Taxi trade in London is in terminal decline.
Personally, Calvin I suggest you go back to doing your own filming, this isn’t a ccd video even the cinematic shouldve been filmed by calvin as you have your own type of cinematic which is one of the key reasons why I watch your videos . This video it felt like it was over produced nd you wasn’t being yourself in a way. Also too much swaying with the camera isn’t really nice to watch. Anyways love your channel regardless.
I agree fully, Love the channel and Calvin, and his style is something we tune in for. I didn't get that from this video unfortunately :( Hopefully this comes across as Constructive feedback.
Can 100% appreciate the level of editing and quality involved in making this video, but for me I 100% prefer your previous video style, seems far more genuine and honest to me. All new things start of rocky though! #onit
Hey Calvin love your vids bro. Like some others said I prefer your old unique style of making vids rather than this new style. Your old style is unique and that is what brings people to your channel. I reckon the high level production vids have a place on your channel maybe a couple of tunes a year you can do extended videos like 30-45 mins with cars you think are really special
My suggestion would be to get it wrapped for the car buying shop great cheap advertising and you can park it up in random places and offer a discount when people mention the cab... I'm a ex taxi driver myself and local advertising really works
Calvin,you must have a spare BMW engine from one of your project cars? Engine/suspension swap it,tart it up with some custom wide bodywork.Wrap it with some CCD/Binca livery as others have suggested.Would be a great talking point around MK,Bletchley,Dunstable,Luton.
Weren't too sure on the filter on this vid or the movement when calv is talking. Think Calv is a bit more natural by himself as well. Will be hard to get better editors when you're one of the best on RU-vid already.
Ha I just found your channel, I've just bought one of these and driven it 1000km back home to France. They're an interesting drive that's for sure! What are your plans? I might make mine into a little camper! Videos on my channel 😜
Wow your editing is on another level to LLF etc sick buddy 😁Ricky should pay you to do his actually also like he had to get someone in to do hellcat one lol 🤟🏻
I reckon you should do a giveaway for someone to put their name/logo/business on the side of it for a bit as advertisement! I for example own a small vintage clothing company and think this would be epic!
Calv,I preferred it when you was editing the vids. What the hell is going on with the saturation? And the movement when you are talking ? Made your vids look cheap.
Totally agree. I can't watch that. Got to just past the acting palaver and thought it would stop after that. The raw content is what drawn me to the channel over a year ago, this really isn't my cuppa at all.
You make a taxi seem cool, I always liked them as a kid, feel like one now lol. I'd go pump my ride on it, turn the passenger area into a luxurious space TVs and all. Then engine swap Twin turbo!! Go on Calvin!!!
Been thinking about buying one as a cheap run around being that all of the tx2's are now up for sale cheap all the cabbies are upgrading to the electric model. These things go forever aswell like 400,000 miles is like middle aged for one of these. Goes to show, car manufactures can build to last when it suits them.
Great vid m8, was good to see the ideas you want to bring to the channel but the vids feel more natural when you do the filming. Keep up the good work tho fella #calvinscardiary
The driver space i thought wasnst to great..i fancied one to use as a pet taxi service,with my courier work.but ive seen plenty for sale too and mega mileage..but i have not been able to source private insurance on it..Oh i suffer with bad legs sometimes so legroom is required..Thats reall my main concern however i was a cab driver in Coventry back in the day..
Calvin I’d love to see you get a Z3M Coupe or convertible, it’s the only MCar not featured on your channel as far as I can see, good money to be made on them as well!! Cheers
Omg my bro Calvin this is next level wtf I would love a Video done like this bro this is Mentle Top Man bro keep #ONIT #CCDMEDIA BRO OMG now I'm blown away 😍😎😁
