Volga Taxi in Hradcanska, Prague, CZ, 2009

I earlier posted a photo of a 1960's-era Volga police car, so here's a 1980's-1990's era GAZ-24-10 Volga taxi. This one's been in use in the area of the Hradcanska metro for many years, although when I first moved to Prague it was still painted white, as in the Communist era. At one time, many of Prague's taxis were Volgas. They can be seen in old documentary footage of Elton John's 1984 visit to Prague, for example, although I've had trouble getting much information on said documentary.
