More and more these taxi's are being used by anyone looking for cheap transport (hence commonly used by students such as myself). Really good photo though, especially from a moving vehicle!

Most of the people I know refer to them as taxis or minibus taxis... but I occasionally still hear the term "black taxi", which must be really confusing for tourists and hence why I made mention of it. :) Yeah Carel-J, I guess it depends on who it is you speak with.

Personally, I call them "minibus taxis", or most often just "taxis", but the term "black taxis" is certainly in use - perhaps it's just a northern suburbs thing, though?

I do not believe that is a PC term at all. The correct term is minibus. I’ve never heard that term but find it offensive. I do not believe that is a PC term at all. The correct term is minibus.
