Victor Clark, from Bury St Edmunds, has been a cabbie for no less than thirty eight years and he still loves his job. He also loves his new taxi, Cab Direct’s purpose-built favourite, the Peugeot E7.
Victor comments: “Even after all this time, I still love being a cabbie and meeting new people every day. I’m also absolutely delighted with my new E7. It’s a beautiful cab – I can’t praise it highly enough. ”
Access for All
There is little doubt that taxis provide a vital component of the UK’s public transport network. Disabled people in particular often depend on taxis to get around, which is why E7 raises standards in accessibility for disabled passengers – something which proved a major selling point for Victor.
He comments: “In Bury St Edmunds 85% of taxis are saloon cars. I myself previously drove a Mercedes saloon. However recently the government ran an initiative to encourage drivers to opt for wheelchair access and I decided it was the perfect time to change. I much prefer my new cab – now I can cater for every fare.”
With Cab Direct’s revolutionary EasyGlide™ pull-out ramp, providing wheelchair access couldn’t be simpler. Add to this the choice of manual or cab-operated side steps, high visibility grab handles and the highest standards of safety and it’s clear to see why Victor is impressed.
“The ramp is so convenient and easy to use”, comments Victor. The electric step is great for access too. And the amount of room the E7 affords you is superb – it’s the ideal cab.”
Driver Comfort
Purpose-built for the professional driver, comfort and convenience is something the E7 taxi has in abundance. Features such as the active, pump action height and tilt adjustable driver’s seat, air conditioning, one-touch electric windows and numerous handy storage areas are your promise of a relaxing and comfortable ride every fare.
Victor continues: “The comfort in the E7 is excellent. The space and all round-vision make it an absolute pleasure to drive.”
“I’ve had lots of positive feedback from my customers. Other taxi drivers have commented too – everyone loves it. In all honesty, I think the Peugeot E7 is the perfect vehicle for the taxi trade.”
