Product Description
Hot Wheels 2006 Chrome Burnerz Series #068 Cockney Cab II Chrome 3/5
Cockney Cab II is a heavily modified London taxi cab, with a blown V8 where the trunk would be, with 4 exhausts sticking out of both rear windows. The Cockney Cab II's roof-mounted "air scoop" is the subject of a rare and amusing error - on the real vehicle, this feature is actually a hooded orange lamp with the word "TAXI" written on it, illuminated when the cab is available for hire. In early First Edition examples, this has a correctly-positioned orange patch on it - later ones being simply black. A few examples also have the "scoop" fitted facing backwards.
In 2006 the tool got a little update. The 2005 version had a blank license plate, but the 2006-version's has "LIV 2 GUV" or "WHR 2 GUV" casted in the license plate area. In 2015 the casting got updated again: the hood scoop is now part of the body instead of being a separate piece, along with the sidepipes being integrated into the window piece
