From BBC:
Driver can use luxury car as taxi
A Worcestershire taxi driver has won an application to register his Jaguar as a private hire vehicle.Tony Harvey attended a meeting with Wychavon District Council's licensing sub-committee over its concerns about him using the car for four passengers.
The council thought the middle seat in the rear of the luxury vehicle was too uncomfortable for a third person.
But a compromise has been reached, allowing Mr Harvey to use it for three passengers.
