The American SetA 1996 Austin Taxi Finds a Second Life as a Wedding Landaulette on Bring a Trailer
A 1996 Imperial Landaulette has surfaced for sale on Bring a Trailer, built on the bones of an Austin taxi rather than a purpose-made coachbuilder's chassis. Motive power comes from a Nissan diesel engine, an unexpected pairing beneath a body styled for ceremony rather than commute. The listing gives American collectors a look at a genuine oddity: a taxi-derived landaulette, its folding rear roof intact, crossing the Atlantic through an online sale rather than a traditional auction house.
