I much prefer a black
cab to the green and white saloons used by most Brighton taxis.

Others prefer saloons as easier to get into, my mother for example, a
typical older person who has difficulty with the high step into black
cabs.

What happened with the Tuk-tuks that were puttering around Brighton a couple
of years ago?

They went bust. The owner Dominic Ponniah went on Dragon's Den to get
money and lasted less than 10 seconds (on the televised bit). The
Dragons saw that it was not a good business model, let alone the
problems with safety issues.
