Did you ever think of yellow taxi paint as a wasted opportunity? Me neither, until now.
Taxis and buses in Britain don't mess around when it comes to design, as the above pictures Brett and I took in Edinburgh, London, and Oxford clearly show.

And why shouldn't the ubiquitous taxis of London suggest trips to Malaysia, Turkey or Greece? After all, anyone seeing them on the street has already paid to come to England, so the tourism board needn't worry about sudden urges to head for the Mediterranean...
