By 1694, there were around 1,200 hackney coaches on the London's streets. However, cab design was constantly evolving. The picture shows the "cabriolet" designed by Mr David Davies in 1823. By 1834, there were 800 in the capital. The French word "cabriolet" was later shortened to "cab". http://ourlondontaxi.blogspot.com/
