Description1977 Austin FX4 London Taxi (32566908222).jpg
The Austin FX4 is a taxicab that was produced from 1958-97. It was sold by Austin from 1958-82, when Carbodies, who had been producing the FX4 for Austin, took over the rights to the car. They continued production until 1984 when London Taxis International took over the rights to the FX4 - and they produced it until 1997. In all, more than 75,000 FX4s were built. The FX4 replaced the 1948-58 FX3
Most FX4s from 1961-71 had the Austin 2178cc diesel engine, from 1962-73 the Austin 2199c petrol engine was available, although most were fitted with the diesel. In 1971 the diesel engines size was increased to 2520cc. When Carbodies took over in 1982, they used the Land Rover 2286cc diesel engine, now the FX4R (R for Rover)
