An immobilised vehicle means zero revenue

For a self-employed taxi driver the vehicle is the business. Every day off the road is a day without income but with the same fixed costs. A replacement vehicle exists precisely to break that link, and depending on your policy, your insurer may pay for it.

Why this service exists

A self-employed taxi driver usually has exactly one vehicle. That vehicle is the tool, the shop front and the entire production capacity of the business at once. The day it goes into the garage, trading stops dead: no fares, no income, but the finance payments, the insurance and the fixed costs carry on regardless.

A replacement taxi solves that in a matter of hours. You collect a vehicle already equipped to the standard required by the trade, transfer your plate and your insurance, and get back to work, often the same day.

What is included

The vehicle is handed over complete: approved taximeter linked to the printer, roof sign, plate, card terminal and first-aid kit. Mileage is unlimited, and the daily rate falls as the rental period lengthens.

We build the file with you

The discouraging part is the admin, not the rental: obtaining the certificate of immobilisation from the garage, transferring the insurance, notifying the insurer, gathering the evidence. We walk this path every week, and we’ll walk it with you.

Why TS57

  • Equipped to trade standards

    Approved taximeter, roof sign, plate, printer and card terminal: the vehicle is ready to drive, not ready to fit out.

  • Unlimited mileage

    You drive to make a living, not to watch an odometer. No per-kilometre charge at the end of the rental.

  • Often covered by insurance

    Many professional policies include a replacement vehicle. We help you put the file together with your insurer.

  • Tapering rates

    The longer the rental, the lower the daily rate. The price is stated before signature, with no hidden charges.

  • A simple file

    Seven documents, a card imprint held as a deposit, and you’re away. We’ll help you assemble it if needed.

  • Delivery available

    We can bring the vehicle to you by appointment, saving a round trip exactly when you have least time for one.
