Default May be dumb question - Regarding Melb/VIC Taxis

How do the Melbourne/Victorian FORD Taxi's get ordered?

As in, paint code, options etc?

Do they get a special 'Taxi Pack' with the vinyl trim, bench seats front seat of some wagons/sedans?

What about the paint? Are they ordered as 'factory' Yellow cars, or do they just buy a cheap 'demo' model car, and spray them?

In fact, if this is the case, do they rub back the original paint? Or do they just simply paint over it?

Reason I ask, is a friend of mine is looking at an ex-cab as a cheap car (I advised to give it a miss, its a BA with 515,000km... But its on Gas, and they do somehow keep driving forever (not the most beautiful chariot i've seen).

Anyways, if anyone can shed some light, that would be great...

Cheers - Loftie
