This was one fantastic cab equipped with GPS and a really smart looking cab driver that nearly had my heart in his hand by the end of the taxi ride. This mad journey lasted a mere 15 mins with the drivers excellent knowledge of the streets in London and with the help of high technology - Global Positioning System. I had never seen one of these before and was thus, very impressed with the works. In fact, I am now a firm fan of Addison Lee. Do not expect all the cabs you rent from Addison Lee to be equipped with a great looking studd and GPS, although Addison Lee really should try to do this, it is admittedly a great marketing strategy! Also, do not expect your cabs to arrive at your pick up destination within 15-30 mins. the average waiting period would span from 30 mins to 80 mins.However, I have had cabs arriving in just under 8 mins. So it really depends on your luck. Anyway, the no. to call is 0207-387-8888. You can set up a cash or acount standard with them and you can even request for which cab driver you want.
