100.000 km mark reached

Ok, It's been about 6 month that we started working with the "new" car and we just reached the 100.000 km mark yesterday. Not bad considering there is not that much work for the taxi these days. Hopefully we get busy over Christmas :)

Injector Failure :(

Too bad... today we started having an injector failure: When you turn the key the engine does not start immediately. We had to leave the car running all the time just in case it doesn't start again :(
Replacement is on it's way... We'll probably need to change all the injectors in no time.

Taxi prices raised....

We've been advised that we have to go to change the clock settings of the taxi because the prices are going to be raised. It's not much and it's only for trips using the fare "3". What they're going to change is the distance you have before the clock starts moving. It used to give 2 km once the fare was set and now it's been lowered to 1,2 km. This will add from 0,60€ to about 1€ (depending on the time) to the final price.

New car today :)

Great! We finally changed our car today! It was really a must as our old taxi was reaching 3.000.000 km and we started having a few technical problems with it....
Anyway, I hope this car comes out at least half as good as the old one :)

Our Taxi goes pensionist :)

It's official, our good old Mercedes 124 250 has been taken out of duty today after 15 years of service with nearly 3.000.000 kilometres on its clock. My boss will keep it as it's private car from now on...

So tomorrow we will start working with a much newer car: another Mercedes but this time it's a 210 220 CDI. Would be great if this car will last half of the km the old one did..... :)
It's about 8 years old brought over from Germany.

Wishing us Good Luck ;)
