The taxis comes in all colours and usual have commercials on them... in the cities it's normalle full size or Luxury Mercedes models, in the rural parts it's SUV's and mini busses

There are 3 different colours of taxi in Hong Kong is because Hong Kong is divide into 3 main districts, Hong Kong Island, Kowloon, and New Territories(include Lan Tau Island where the airport is). The Red Taxi can run in Hong Kong Island,Kowloon, New Territories and The airport in Lan Tau Island. The Green ones can only run in New Territories and the airport. The blues ones can only run in Lan Tau Island. Although the Red taxi are the most efficient one, they start at a higher taxi fare price. You can look at the map beneath. The Airport is on the bottom left.

Silly Danish! Gotta love 'em

Here are some Dutch taxis:

This last pic also has a very funny taxi in it heheh. I don't know which wierdo it belongs to, but he sure attracts attention!

You'll mostly find luxury Mercedes cars as Dutch taxis as you can see from the pics. Other very common cars are SUV's and luxury vans, but I couldn't find any pics.

Chrysler cars also seem to be a hot item nowadays. You'll find lots of 300C's in Amsterdam, where I live. It's just bloody hard to get some decent taxi pics.

You'll also find some other brands like Volvo or Saab, but always the executive editions.

Well, thanks

But the pics and person you quoted are Dutch as in from the Netherlands

But we are kinda the same economically, politically, visually and taxi-ally

They have a bit more highrises and people, we have a few more islands and Greenland...

These were the Danish ones:

As said they come in all colours of the rainbow, typically with one commercial theme covering the car
