Sell Your Black Cab

<h2>Black Cab Specialists</h2><p>The traditional London-style black cab is more than just a vehicle — it's an institution. Whether you drive a modern TX4, a classic FX4, or anything in between, these purpose-built taxis have specific characteristics that generic car buyers simply don't understand. The famous 25-foot turning circle, the wheelchair-accessible partition, the robust diesel engines designed for stop-start city driving — these all affect value in ways that standard car valuation tools can't capture.</p><h3>What We Buy</h3><p>We buy all models of traditional black cab, including:</p><ul><li><strong>TX4 (2006-2017)</strong> — The workhorse of the London taxi fleet. Available in Euro 4, Euro 5, and Euro 6 variants, each with significantly different values. We understand the emission-tier pricing that matters for resale and export.</li><li><strong>TX1 and TX2 (1997-2006)</strong> — Older models that still have value, particularly for export markets and specialist use. We buy these even with very high mileage.</li><li><strong>FX4 (1958-1997)</strong> — The classic Fairway and its predecessors. These vintage cabs have a collector and novelty market that generic buyers don't access.</li><li><strong>Metrocab (1987-2006)</strong> — The alternative to the TX series. Less common but we buy these too and understand their specific market.</li></ul><h3>Why Specialist Valuation Matters</h3><p>A TX4 Euro 6 with 250,000 miles on the clock might seem worthless to a generic car buyer. But we know that purpose-built taxis are engineered for exactly this kind of use, and that a well-maintained TX4 at this mileage is a very different proposition to a regular car. We also understand the export market, where UK black cabs are prized in countries from Azerbaijan to Japan, and this knowledge feeds into our valuations.</p><p>High mileage is normal for black cabs. We never penalise you for using your vehicle the way it was designed to be used. Instead, we assess condition, service history, and emission tier to give you a price based on real taxi market data.</p>

Black Cab FAQ

Straight answers about selling your Black Cab.

Black cab values vary significantly based on the model, emission tier, mileage, and condition. A late-model TX4 Euro 6 typically commands between £8,000 and £15,000, while earlier Euro 4 and Euro 5 models range from £3,000 to £10,000. The best way to find out is to enter your reg for an instant specialist valuation.

Yes, we buy FX4 Fairway and earlier models. These classic cabs have a niche market — some are exported, some go to collectors, and some are converted for events and wedding hire. Values are lower than modern models but we'll always make an offer.

Absolutely. The difference between a TX4 Euro 4, Euro 5, and Euro 6 can be thousands of pounds. Euro 6 models hold their value best because they're compliant with Clean Air Zones and can continue working in cities like London. We factor the exact emission tier into our valuations.

Completely normal for a black cab and we don't penalise you for it. A TX4 with 400,000 miles that's been properly maintained is a fundamentally different vehicle to a regular car with that reading. We assess condition and service history rather than fixating on the odometer.
