Taxi Cabs From Around the World (Part 1)

This is a new series. Like the Rides of Heads of State series, I will attempt to find taxi cabs from every country around the world. That means the 192 members of the United Nations, plus Taiwan, the Vatican, Kosovo, and Palestine. In almost every country, there are multiple makes and models that make up the taxi cab fleet. But for simplicity's sake, I'm just going to pick an interesting car or picture and make it the "official" taxi cab of the country. Unless otherwise noted, all photos are from flickr. Enjoy!

1. VW Beetle (Mexico)

2. Peugeot wagon (Mali)

3. Mercedes (Lebanon)

4. Peugeot (France)

5. Peugeot (Egypt)

6. Mercedes (Germany)

7. Peugeot (Benin)

8. Peugeot (Argentina)

9. Mercedes (Albania)

10. GAZ 24 Volga (Afghanistan)

Tally:
GAZ: 1
Mercedes: 3
Peugeot: 5
VW: 1
