| I think the give-away was your claim to have a UK licence. Based on your previous posts there is no way you could have passed the theory part of a driving test. |

| Well in that case.........I might have just the car for you.....Very low mileage (well for the past 5 years it's been in my back garden at Salamis, at least). It's a very nice Red/Brown colour (in places) and runs very well (if memory serves). To you 4000TL, and no tyre kicking (or it's at at your own risk if you do). |

| mcstyler, i dont think you understand, how ever much you pay for your car or what ever licence you have, it does not matter, remember you are a foreigner here and as such it will be seen that you will be taking business away from the locals that have a taxi business with insurance for taking passengers on both sides, you will be working illegally...make no mistake you will loose your car and get a fine, and if you are really unlucky you will be deported..sorry for the wake up call but has to be said...ive been here 10 yrs and know how things work.. |

| Mcstyler, I said be careful not for any dramas from customers. I mean the local taxi drivers who are NOT happt with even family collecting family and friends from Airports so what will they do about you, as verytime you go south a log is kept on you and as I said be careful. I know pothers who have come unstuck and to advertise here and as blaisy as you have will lead to only more trouble for you. there was a geordie guy 4 years ago who had his car (had southern plates on) impounded at customs with customers in it, as he had been across south too often, customers were left high and dry and he had to leave his car in the ROC ..... where it conveniently disappeared So without sounding patronising, do your homework and weigh up the riskd of running an illegal expat taxi service! |

| Because you are buying a very old car firstly and the local taxi drivers will be after you big time. Will you have insurance to cover any accidents to your passengers? |

| Styler, be very careful going South. It's not the taxi drivers you want to watch it the police/customs at the borders. They get very suspicious if they find you going south then coming back with four or five people and a car full of luggage. Likewise the other way round. When you get your visa stamped it's recorded on their computer and it's easy for them to see how many times you go in and out and how many P.O.B's. Before you know it you'll have a hefty fine and possibly your car impounded. Also what about insurance? You'll need comprehensive but at the border it's only third party. What if you had a serious accident with passengers on board? I nearly got done bringing neighbours over, accused me of being a taxi driver and nearly gave me a 800tl fine. Think again pal! |

| mcstyler - I admire a person such as yourself, who stands up for his principles and tries to make an honest living. As you know, I was sorry to hear about your previous venture failing, due to lack of a work permit. Were you able to get rid of your stock of Rastafarian goods when you were unable to open your shop in Girne? Anyway, keep us all posted and I look forward to hearing from you again. J |

| If you really want to do cabbing, do it legally. Get a work permit and try and get a 'T' plate cab. That is if the authorities will let a foreigner get a licence! If you are any good your name will soon get around by word of mouth and the ex pats will ask for you by name. Touting for business is illegal in UK don't know about here. Probably the same. |
