Maybe the badge of that one was damaged?
"second page" is not really a reliable criterion
So you mean 1984+ should be modified.

The Mexican Dodge Dart was only officially called Dart K for 1983, so all the ones on the second page:
"second page" is not really a reliable criterion

So you mean 1984+ should be modified.

That's why I chose an entry from a 1988-90 series rather than something like this

https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1495419244335241/
(which is often why people don't come up with the same search results as me, because they look at 40 year old used cars rather than promotional material where you know exactly what's original and when it was changed)
Yes indeed, all from 1984 and onwards should have the K removed.

LTI taxis: we use TX1 but according to a book comment it should be TXI. The story is that when the prototype was unveiled to senior management it was labelled TAXI as the name was undecided as Fairmile was the best anyone could come up with. The Seniorest Manager simply got out his Big Senior Management pen and crossed out the A so it became TXI.
No idea if this has been spotted or discussed before, but if agreed it should be a simple block update. However everyone seems to quite happily use TX1 (eg wiki, google references etc). Doesn't affect its successor TXII or its successor's successor TX4.

But is that book right? There are also sometimes errors in books
And maybe it was true for the prototype and that they changed for the production models.
What do DVLA and other sites return? TXI or TX1?

DVLA does not give models, only the makes, but those sites which piggy-back DVLA data all seem to use TX1 on a sample of plates. However the book is a good one "A Century of London Taxis" written by Bill Munro - a black cabs expert, with some specific detail for the anecdote: Manganese Bronze's chairman Jamie Borwick suggested Fairmile, but Jevon Thorpe - the TXI designer and Managing Director of LTI - created the TXI name with his Big Senior Management pen. So I believe the book.
We have a few comments down the years which reference TXI, but not enough of them to mount a campaign and nothing which seems to question whether we should be using TXI or TX1. I suppose if the whole world calls it TX1, probably too much grief to resist??

Hatchback, not coupe:
It is not the only 3-door hatchback listed as coupé.
They are referenced as "liftback coupé" and "notchback coupé" on Wikipedia, wouldn't be easier to have the "Liftback" in extra info rather than using the hatchback category?
I can change them but I'm afraid that quickly the new ones will not be properly listed in all cases.
What do others think?

One of the numerous features waiting to be added is the possibility of having aliases in model names (like there are a few in make names), maybe it is better to wait that to chose which model name to use, and the other model name would still work for searches.

Well, there is the actual 2-door Celica coupe that has a boot, so to have them both listed as coupes seems weird to me. And of course, we already have many that are already listed as hatchback, so if it's to be a coupe, then those should all be changed.

Indeed, that's a good point, I didn't notice many were already has hatchback.
Well I'll change the coupé to hatchback, it is always easy to change the other way round in case it is needed.
I'll do that later, I put it on my to do list.
Should "Liftback" added to extra info of all those from your list above?
