AI Listing Summary

This 1992 LTI Carbodies London Taxi was used in the London 2012 Olympics opening ceremony skit with Daniel Craig as James Bond and Queen Elizabeth II. It has been lightly restored, retaining original features and modifications made for film use, making it a unique piece of TV and film history.

Condition

While the car has been lightly restored with some new parts, it was noted that some parts were left in disrepair to accommodate film history. The listing states the vehicle will likely be displayed more than driven, and there are repairs made to remedy issues that accommodate for this. Therefore, I believe it should be rated as Good.
