Updated (aka version 2) can be found here!
The taxis from bon voyage had nicer details, so I extracted and applied them to the basegame taxi texture, and while I was at it I fixed some other small details. I’m aware that there’s not that big of a difference, but I have an unhealthy relationship with details and an urge to poke at absolutely everything ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
There are two files to choose from; the one with BV at the end requires bon voyage and is defaulting the basegame taxi as well as the bon voyage taxis (far east, mountain, tropic). The one with BG at the end is only defaulting the basegame taxi. Choose one!
Both files have been compressed to reduce file size, and they contain replacements for the taxi’s texture and mesh. Remember you can only have one default for the taxi(s) in your downloads folder at a time! :-)
Let me know if you stumble upon any problems!
Oh and also, dickhurt has a mod you might be interested in: taxi charges money
