Not a taxi, a hire car. You have to pre-hire these, you can't hail them in the street.

1951 Cheshire plate. Sometimes people bought these (FL1 and later FL2) just to use as ordinary cars - early MPVs/people carriers.

Exactly like that.

Arcane English law, taxis can be flagged down in the street and will have a meter to show you the fare. A hire had to be booked by telephone or in person, and may not have a meter as the fare is pre agreed. This is probably now changed, along with many things.
