This is a McLaren P1 taxi*
This is the world's best taxi. Probably. It is a yellow McLaren P1, snapped here in Taiwan by Wesley Cars Photography.
Naturally, information surrounding this yellow P1 is thin on the ground. It could be a P1 with a taxi sign slapped on its roof just for kicks. It might just be an elaborate Photoshop. It could even actually be a real-life taxi.
We're secretly hoping it's the latter. Because what better way to transport one person from home to kebab shop than in a twin-turbo V8-engined rear-wheel-drive supercar with enough downforce to make you go home and rethink your life?
Jon Olssen's 1000bhp RS6 not-so-mini-cab is obviously in the top ten, along with the excellent Hindustan Ambassador Hammond showed you on TG telly. Spotted any other better taxis?
