Introducing Gertrude Our Newest London Taxi at Mad Cow Cabs

Mad Cow Cabs has exciting news for Skegness and the surrounding area. We have expanded our fleet to include a second London taxi, adding more availability and comfort for our customers. Many of you already know Daisy, our original London taxi, easily recognized by her distinctive cow-print design. Now, Daisy has a new partner: Gertrude. This post introduces Gertrude, explains what she brings to the table, and how having two taxis benefits you.



Meet Gertrude, Our New London Taxi


Gertrude is a genuine London taxi, just like Daisy. While she hasn’t yet received her signature Mad Cow Cabs cow-print wrap, she is fully ready to serve the community. Gertrude stands out for her spacious interior and fully working air conditioning system. This feature is especially valuable during the warmer months, making journeys more comfortable after a day at the beach, a night out, or when traveling with luggage.


Gertrude’s design focuses on passenger comfort and practicality. The extra space means families, groups, or travelers with bulky items can ride without feeling cramped. The air conditioning keeps the cabin cool and pleasant, which is a big plus on hot days. These qualities make Gertrude a great addition to the Mad Cow Cabs family.


Why Two London Taxis Are Better Than One


Adding Gertrude to the fleet means Mad Cow Cabs can offer more reliable and flexible service. Here are some ways this benefits you:


  • Increased availability

With two taxis on the road, it’s easier to find a ride when you need one. Whether it’s a last-minute trip or a planned journey, you have a better chance of getting a taxi quickly.


  • More coverage for different types of trips

We can handle local journeys, nights out, caravan park pickups, railway station runs, and longer trips more efficiently. Having two vehicles means we can serve more customers at once.


  • Backup during maintenance or busy times

If one taxi needs servicing or is already booked, the other can step in. This reduces cancellations and keeps our service dependable.


  • Better service across the area

You will see both Daisy and Gertrude operating around Skegness, Ingoldmells, Chapel St Leonards, Wainfleet, and nearby villages. This wider coverage means shorter wait times and more convenient pickups.


Daisy Is Still Here, Gertrude Is Joining Her

It’s important to know that Gertrude is not replacing Daisy. Daisy remains a key part of Mad Cow Cabs and continues to provide the friendly, reliable service customers expect. Gertrude is joining the team to strengthen our capacity and improve your experience.


Both taxis will soon share the familiar cow-print look, making them easy to spot wherever you are. Until then, Gertrude’s classic London taxi appearance stands out on its own, ready to serve.


What This Means for You


If you live in or visit Skegness and the surrounding villages, having two London taxis means:


  • More options for booking a taxi

You can book with confidence knowing there is a higher chance of availability.


  • Comfortable rides in spacious, air-conditioned vehicles

Especially useful during summer or when carrying luggage.


  • Reliable service even during busy periods or vehicle maintenance

We can cover more ground and keep our promise of timely pickups.


Booking a taxi with Mad Cow Cabs remains easy. You can call us directly or use the booking enquiry form on our website. Whether you need a quick trip into town, a ride to the railway station, or a pickup from a caravan park, we are here to help.


Looking Ahead


Gertrude will soon receive her Mad Cow Cabs makeover, joining Daisy in the iconic cow-print design that has become a symbol of our friendly local service. Together, they will form a stronger, more visible presence across the area.


We look forward to seeing both taxis out and about, serving the community with the same commitment to comfort, reliability, and friendliness that Mad Cow Cabs is known for.



If you need a taxi in Skegness or nearby, remember that Mad Cow Cabs now has two London taxis ready to serve you. More availability means better service, and we are excited to welcome Gertrude to the team. Call us or book online today and experience the difference two taxis can make.
