Would you get into a cab that looks like this?

Nissan is hell-bent on taking over the world's taxicab fleets with its NV200 van.

It hopes to fare better in London, seeking a place among the 22,000 black cabs that fill the city's streets.

Vauxhall Meriva (2010) revealed

Vauxhall/Opel have revealed the 2010 Meriva Back at the end of September we reported on the 2010 Vauxhall Meriva after our photographers had spied the new Vauxhall tramping round the Nurburgring. As we said, not exactly where you’d expect to find the mini-MPV, but good to see it being properly shaken down.
