and
believes that offering customers a modern, comfortable and air conditioned cab is all part of the service. In keeping with this philosophy Derek has recently taken delivery of a brand new Peu- geot 5008 from Cab Direct – the second of Peugeot’s award win- ning model he has purchased in the last
12 months. Derek says: “I bought my first 5008 last November
- we
received such great feedback from cus- tomers that when I was looking for a new vehicle for my wife, it was an easy decision to make.”

parking brake with hill assist, designed to make life that bit easi- er when setting off on a gradient. The entry level 5008 Access model also comes with air conditioning, trip computer, alloys, leather steering wheel and CD player with MP3, all as standard. Derek comments: “My daughter has been driving the first 5008 I bought since Novem- ber last year and has had nothing but good things to say about it.” Now my wife is full of praise too. The space in the cab is great – it’s really comfortable and
offers plenty of head and leg-room for both driver and passengers. Another big bonus is the large boot capacity which is excellent for airport transfers.”
Smooth & Efficient
Universally praised in its field, the 5008 has everything a hard- working taxi driver is looking for including class leading driver comfort, bumper boot space for luggage and spacious rear seating. Plus, with impressive fuel consumption of up to 61.4mpg*, the 5008 is one of the most cost effective cars on the road today meaning you can save money on diesel and spend more time on the road earning. Derek says: “I’d recom-
mend the 5008 to any taxi driver – in fact, I already have. It’s a great cab and the fuel con- sumption is fantastic.”
The Extra Mile
Derek concludes: “This is the third vehicle we’ve purchased from Cab Direct who always go out of their way to help us. I normally deal with John in the call centre and he always goes the extra mile to see that we get the right car at the right price. My wife and I actually took a trip up to Scot- land to pick the car up this time round and it was a pleasure to meet John who came and handed over the vehi- cle to us in person. Cab Direct provided us with a great service from start to finish.”

misquoted Jeanette as saying her company, J-S taxis, had five owner drivers on the books. For clarifica-
