Corgi has released its next wave of 1/64 scale diecast 'Destination London 2012' taxis each representing a different Olympic or Paralympic sport. ...

Diecast Collector was pleased to see that the next two batches of Olympic Taxis from Corgi will soon be available for collectors.

On our recent visit to Margate we spotted models from Wave 6 and Wave 7 of the Olympic Taxi range that included eight more of the proposed 40 1/64 scale London Taxis. Each taxi represents a different London 2012 Olympic or Paralympic sport with eye catching pictograms on the sides.
