Have. The corollas, being private owners who does not represent any cab companies, exists on Singapore roads currently. There is on rought estimate, less than 5 such vehicles. These private taxis comes under "Singapore Taxi Transport Association", but as mentioned earlier, the drivers buy/ owned theie own vehicles and does not pay rental to STTA. These taxis, commonly mistaken as "Yellow Top Cab", can only be flagged down and not pre-booked because first, there is no hotline to call, and, the taxis are not equipped with radio.Originally posted by Destroy_forums:got corolla meh? ?
Also, the corolla is the 2nd "rarest" to be seen after the Toyota Coronas. The STTA coronas will bid farewell to us by year 2006.
Next, is the Toyota Crown, the 2nd vehicle in term of "fleet" size. The nissan Cedrics are the most common on the roads.
Cedrics and Crowns are 3000cc, Corolla and Coronas are 2000cc. -
Hi, I'm a Hk taxi owner/Driver previous driven for Comfort in Singapore 4 years ago (returned to live in HK). In Hk, almost all taxis are Toyota Crown Comfort LPG 85hp with a few Nissan Cedric (Used to be 60% toyota, 40% nissan) but now is like 98% toyota. This is because the dealer of Toyota HK have good service and cheap parts for toyota taxi to keep the toyota taxi on the road, as most of the toyota crown LPG have average life span of 6 years (the eariler version are being trade in and replaced with new once) and nissan have like 3 years (this is because the NA20P engine have problems, expensive parts, and poor service of Nissan dealer that cost drivers to turn away from toyota) I was once a Nissan Cedric LPG owner (2000) but since traded in the cab for a Toyota (@ 2004) the nissan was scrapped...I agree that Nissan have better body strength then Toyota, but as a cabbie and owner, I look at running cost, and the maintainence cost of Crown LPG is 35% lower then nissan.
BTW: there are still 10 Diesel Toyota on the road, most Diesel Crown Comfort have been scrapped (with some less then 1 year) by 2003. because Government gave $60,000 (about $ 12,000 SP) for replacing Diesel to LPG cabs.
Also, some people said the cab engine sound of HK cab is different because they used LPG, also, 99% of them are AUTO, something I think Singapore cabbie company should look into for Crown and Cedric. And the seating is different too, we uses bench seats for front seats, therefore all taxis are column shift rather then floor shift, that's why the cab in hk can carry 5 passengers. And if you see a Cedric cab in HK, take a pic la, as Nissan stop selling them last year and soon they will be gone (the newer onces are a more luxtry version compare to the singapore version, as have colour coded bumper and seden version dash, and alloy wheels) -
In my humble opinions, both the Crown and the Cedric are having the same loudness of engine noises, but if in terms of appearance, then Cedric should be the "winner" (being larger in its looks), where Crowns are quite small and narrow, from my sights and all the photos seen in this board.
