point of sale ..... point of sale .. A CLASSIC FROM CAB DIRECT
John Roberts, from Holyhead in North Wales, has recently added Cab Direct’s original model E7 Classic to his fleet and he couldn’t be happi- er.
Having worked as a cab driver and now operator for more than two decades, John certainly knows what he’s talking about when it comes to taxis. John’s company, Mark’s Taxis, has five vehicles operating in its fleet, including one owner driver. John himself drives a Renault Trafic, which he also bought from Cab Direct, whilst his other drivers have saloons. However, John recently decided that he wanted to offer his customers the choice of a wheelchair accessible cab and
the factory recondi- tioned E7 Classic fitted the bill perfectly.
Access for All
There’s little doubt that taxis provide a vital component of the UK’s public transport network. Particularly so for disabled pas- sengers who often depend on wheelchair accessible taxis to get around. With bags of room and the choice of wheelchair ramps, access is sure not to be a problem in the Classic.
John comments: “The under-floor, pull-out ramp is really conven- ient and easy to use. It’s great.” Add to this grab handles and an electric side-step and the Classic is your assurance of being able to cater for every fare.
Economy
If economy is high on your list of priorities then look no further. Cab Direct’s E7 Clas- sic range has a full-spec hackney at a price to suit every pocket. Not only that but each Classic is fully factory recondi- tioned, undergoing a 50 point quality inspection and repair. Plus, with a compre- hensive two year unlimited mileage war- ranty, you can buy your used vehicle with added peace of mind. John says: “One of the main reasons I opted for the E7 was down to economy.
Not only
did I get a great price, the E7 also has great fuel efficiency. I also love the amount of space and the comfort levels in the vehicle.”
Shaun Roberts, delighted with his E7 Classic Supplier of Choice
John is delighted with his new taxi, as well as the service he received from his sup- plier of choice. He comments: “I’ve bought several vehi- cles from Cab Direct and I would highly rec- ommend them. My drivers have always
been happy with the vehicles I’ve bought. The E7 Classic has been no different - Shaun, the guy who normally drives it, absolutely loves it.” Guaranteed to taxi test, with a Digitax ready- calibrated taxi meter and a free delivery pack including floor mats, driver’s fleece
CHOICEQUOTE INSURANCE SCOTLAND
CONSOLIDATES BUSINESS GROWTH WITH RELOCATION TO THE HUB IN GLASGOW’S PACIFIC QUAY
Specialist insurance broker ChoiceQuote recently re-located its regional offices to The Hub at Glasgow’s Pacific Quay. The offi- cial opening of the new state of the art premises, on Septem- ber 8th was supported by Marie Curie in association with its ‘Big Build’ appeal. The office was declared ‘open for business’ by Nieve Jennings, crowned Miss Scotland in 2007 and Miss UK the fol-
lowing year.
ChoiceQuote cus- tomers and local taxi drivers were invited to visit the new offices for a free celebratory breakfast and give- away bag. Members of ChoiceQuote’s experienced staff were on hand to offer insur- ance advice and to provide insurance quotations on a wide range of products. Throughout the day, representatives from Marie Curie collected donations for their ‘Big
Build’ appeal, which aims to build a new modern hospice in Glasgow.
The move consoli- dates significant growth for Choice- Quote Insurance Scotland since it entered the Scottish taxi insurance market two years ago. Busi- ness has doubled over the last twelve months and the company now services the needs of ten per cent of the Glaswegian taxi mar- ket and six per cent of all the licensed private hire and black cabs in Scotland.
Cathie Bruce, Manag- ing Director at ChoiceQuote Insur- ance commented: “We established a presence in Scotland in 2007 and since then our insurance busi- ness has grown from strength to strength. We have developed a
