In any case, there's also an age limit of 6.5 years on taxis, so in 1999, 1992 was the oldest possible normal taxi. The age limit differs for handicap taxis or taxis in rural areas, though. This same vehicle (taxi 4185) also appeared in the 2000 movie "The Wog Boy" as well as a 1997 episode of "Good Guys Bad Guys", and the TV show "Halifax f.p.": /vehicle.php?id=334727 /vehicle_663996-Ford-Fairlane-NC-1994.html /vehicle_731770-Ford-Fairlane-NC-1994.html Note that as of July 2016, taxi age limits no longer exist in Melbourne (or Sydney since late 2015). -- Last edit: 2023-09-06 20:38:17
