A CABBIE from Droitwich Spa has teamed up with his boss to launch a stylish taxi service.

NY Taxis boss David Honey and driver Paul Williams have started up NY Executive.

The new business will run along side NY Taxis but will provide luxurious and stylish transport, aimed at special occasions or business use.

The new partners plan to incorporate all major credit cards which will make payment more convenient for customers.

The pair have invested £50,000 in new vehicles and their fleet boasts a brand new seven seater Mercedes and a seven seater Peugeot Euro Cab.

Paul, of Farmers Court, said: "We plan, in the next five years, to build up a fleet of Mercedes and executive type cars, finishing off with one everyone wants to see and ride in, a stretch limousine."
