This Thursday, 19 December, central London will see a splash of vibrant pink as one of Sherbet’s very own drivers, Nicola Owen, takes to the streets in a striking electric taxi offering free rides for one day only. Nicola, a highly experienced London cabbie and Knowledge of London examiner, is driving this eye-catching cab as part of a festive initiative by digital car finance company Carmoola.
The pink taxi—dubbed the #CarmoolaCabbie—will be cruising through some of London’s most iconic shopping and dining hotspots, including Regent Street, Covent Garden, and Southbank. Lucky passengers who manage to spot and hail this unique cab can enjoy a complimentary ride, making it the perfect opportunity to tick off last-minute Christmas errands or travel to holiday gatherings in style.
Adding to the festive fun, Carmoola is offering passengers a chance to win up to £15,000 towards a new car. Riders are encouraged to share their experience on Instagram, tagging @carmoolaapp and using the hashtag #CarmoolaCabbie, to enter exclusive prize draws.
Aidan Rushby, founder and CEO of Carmoola, shared his thoughts on the initiative: “We’re all about making life easier for people by helping them get from A to B without the stress. The #CarmoolaCabbie is our way of bringing that to life during the busiest time of the year for the high street. Christmas in London is magical but can also be hectic, so we’re providing a little holiday relief for eagle-eyed shoppers.”
So, if you’re in central London this Thursday, keep an eye out for Nicola Owen in her dazzling pink electric taxi. You might just snag a festive free ride and brighten your day with some holiday cheer!
