W124/201 Taxi Spec?

Been looking at the EPC a bunch lately and keep seeing Taxi references. I know the 2 were used extensively, but does anyone have a dedicated list of just what parts were "taxi spec?" BTW Did taxi's have larger than normal fuel tanks?

Ive seen a taxi edition W124 - very plain, uses slightly high riding hard suspension, steel wheels with caps, no cladding etc.

The best part about the taxi spec for the W124 is the center console...good for double din.

There's one on there now.

From a previous thread, the taxi's also use a rear flex disc for the front, more rigid, less cost....
