Perhaps you ought to look at it another way. If I were a fleet owner or taxi driver and relied on my cars for a living, I'd probably be reluctant to choose a modern BMW. The reliability simply isn't there. I am confident that the fact you don't see modern BMW's as taxis has absolutely nothing to do with this supposed "pressure" from BMW owners, that simply isn't happening. It has everything to do with reliability, comfort, and return on investment. Fleet owners will always choose their cars for very different reasons than those that lead us to buy BMWs.
organization since the 60's to serve the taxi cars and still has. That's the reason for the M-B taxis over here.
All trucking and taxi trafficing needs a reall good service orgaization to keep the cars on the road, at all time.
With all do respect for truckers and taxi drivers - I dont't want to drive a taxi car.
The E M-B is a taxi over here, more than 90% of them are taxi's and so is a lot of the C's also
But as Pukka said. There will be more and more of the F10's as taxis, sucks.

When gas prices go up BMW will get hit hard since all they have been doing is building bigger cars and trucks that use more gas.
