THIS is the stunning luxury black cab EV boasting a fridge, Apple TV and first-class plane-style seats, all of which could be yours for £141,000.
The LEVC VIP taxi is sold exclusively by renowned coachbuilder Clive Sutton and features state-of-the-art perks housed inside the body of one of the most iconic motors in the world.

Celebs like Noel Edmonds, Stephen Fry and Kate Moss have all driven taxis over the years, favouring the anonymity they provide in London.
And the LEVC is no different, outwardly appearing identical to a standard cab, with the exception of the specialist rear numberplate and the optional removal of the yellow light on the front.
In fact, since it is an exact conversion of the capital’s new all-electric cabs, you may wish to take that option to avoid being waved down by prospective passengers at rush hour.
However, the similarity ends as soon as you hop inside.
The interior is kitted out in plush cream leather, with seats more reminiscent of a private jet than your average city runabout.
Customers can configure the layout to their heart’s content, with a choice of two, three, four or five seats in the rear cabin.
Depending on your choice you can plump for footrests, folding tables and cupholders.
All packages, though, come with a 20-inch “media screen” equipped with Apple TV.
The in-built wifi allows you to stream all your favourite shows as you are driven along, while you can hook up any number of devices with the USB and HDMI sockets.
And for those hopping between posh events, there’s a vanity mirror with incorporated lighting to check your hair or top up your makeup.
The rear seats can be heated, while the Bluetooth sound system can stream mood music into the cabin.
That’s before you even get to the optional extras.
Motorists with spare cash after the £141,331.25 asking price could go for an integrated PlayStation 4 console, 5G router, top-loading drinks fridge and umbrellas fitted by the passenger doors.
If you’re really keen, you can even have the electric door closure system spliced in from a Rolls Royce Ghost.
A Clive Sutton spokesperson said: “Our passionate team of visionary engineers and stylists have over 20 years of experience building bespoke luxury passenger vehicles.
“Having been based in London during that time, it is an honour to be working on designing and building the brand new Sutton VIP Class LEVC.
“Currently in production is an awe-inspiring and totally unique London Taxi conversion, built to last and fully suitable for everyday use.
“Clive Sutton is the exclusive creator of the LEVC Sutton VIP Class, a bespoke Taxi featuring a fully redesigned interior, with rear seats trimmed and angled for comfort.”
It comes after a one-of-a-kind supercar from Nissan went up for sale at an eye-watering price.
Meanwhile, a man who lives in his £800 Ford Fiesta revealed how it is better than his old flat.
