Lateef ◊ 2015-08-03 10:26	Yes, it probably went to civilian hands after ended service, as the last W123 taxis had been retired by 2005. I was watching Broom recently, and they were talking about buying an ex-taxi 2009 W212 which had gone - I think - 380.000 kilometres. The price? Get this: 180.000 NOK
karoomay ◊ 2015-08-03 10:44	If I'm correct using a currency converter, it amounts to almost $22?!
ElSaxo ◊ 2015-08-03 10:57	What bank is this? I see 180000 NOK = 21927,6874 USD (it.finance.yahoo.com/valute/convertitore/#from=NOK;to=USD;amt=180000)
karoomay ◊ 2015-08-03 11:10	I entered it with a decimal point after 180 but now I realize that Lateef probably meant 180,000.
Lateef ◊ 2015-08-03 11:20	Yes, 180 NOK is barely enough for a taxi ride
karoomay ◊ 2015-08-03 11:30	Yeah, I knew something was off because it's highly unlikely a 6 year old Mercedes would sell for $22, even if it had a lot of kilometers on it. On another note, when I still used to live in Syria, taxi rides would usually cost around $1 or so.
