How come all the taxi's in Amsterdam are Mercedes? - GoFuckYourself.com

clickhappy · 03-11-2005, 04:59 PM

how do cab drivers afford to drive them? Isnt that expensive for a cab driver to repair a mercedes than a much cheaper car?

Young · 03-11-2005, 04:59 PM

Its like that in alot of places. I went to the Islands of Cape Verde 2 years ago and it was the same thing.

any explanations?

Mefo · 03-11-2005, 05:00 PM

Because they're all turks & turks always drive a mercedes

nah no clue, they can deduct the expenses from the taxes anyway, and it looks nice, probably gives clients a better feeling

axelcat · 03-11-2005, 05:00 PM

Yes it is like that at alot of places

deniska · 03-11-2005, 05:01 PM

because they drive benz's with v4's and no leather

.. u cant get cars like this in the us.. too ghetto

adonthenet · 03-11-2005, 05:02 PM

thats true, cheap benzo's are only sold overseas because they will cheapen the brand here in the states. I did see leather seats in the ones I was in.....but they were covered in plastic

dij · 03-11-2005, 05:04 PM

YEah, it gives a better feeling of taking a mercedes taxi than othercheaper car, wich means more clients = can afford to pay for it

thaifan99 · 03-11-2005, 05:05 PM

Rich bastards!

BRISK · 03-11-2005, 05:05 PM

Because Europeans have style

AkiraSS · 03-11-2005, 05:13 PM

Benzes are really cheap cars, sell for like $5k here in europe

:-)

Oh, and the Mercedes doesn't brake down, no need to repair it ;)

CAHEK · 03-11-2005, 05:18 PM

because they ripp of custumers

ride to airport was on S-class benz was like 70$ for like 5-10min

Illicit · 03-11-2005, 05:54 PM

It costs a shit load to import them in the US. Take that off the top and strip em down and they arent that expensive

yanni · 03-11-2005, 06:48 PM

They're tax-free

Spunky · 03-11-2005, 06:50 PM

That would be nice if they drove them here...nothing but junkers

calmlikeabomb · 03-11-2005, 06:56 PM

spunky,

I notice your location says toiletville.

That by chance wouldn't happen to be Port St. John would it ?

They don't break down. There's your reason. It has nothing with "giving the client a better feeling" or whatever.

wedouglas · 03-11-2005, 07:09 PM

the same reason that they say "why are all taxis in the US fords (or whatever the hell they are)"

Fake Nick · 03-11-2005, 07:09 PM

over here you see benz , but the dudes driving the cabs don't own them ,the cab company does

pornguy · 03-11-2005, 07:10 PM

Because over there FORD is the import, and therefore expensive to buy and repair.
