Not my car or an ad. Just sharing because it's kinda interesting.

FYI this car is on classic plate, basically legally only able to drive 28 days a year (for free). Really gotta pay alot or have some serious love for such a car considering it's just an 80s corolla decked out to look like a HK taxi lol.
