I've noticed groups of them at a time every now and then on eBay.

My family owns taxi's, we generally try to get rid of them for $2500 ONO as is (no stickers and all that shit) if we cant get rid of them then we just hand them over to our mechanics or panel beaters for parts.
They are awesome daily cars on straight gas, cars that are always road worthy for obvious reasons. The only down side is the high km's and the wear and tear of them.
Just gave one away to the mechanics and it had a motor and trans with 130k on it.
If any one is interested in a ex cab (bf most likely) let me know, heaps of owners out there trying to get rid of them.
