Judge Dredd (1995).
Judge Dredd is set in the crumbling 22nd-century
MegaCity-1 which has a strong resemblance to the BladeRunner set.
That's where the taxi's come in,
you must need four wheel drive to cope with decaying infra-structure.
The taxi's are based on Land Rover forward control 101"s.
FC101's were originally produced for the British army
and were also bought by some other armed forces;
most have now been pensioned off.
The film's taxis were created by adding fibre-glass bodywork.
Back in the film -
it's the usual, Sylvester Stallone grunts his way through the dialogue
between shooting people.
As chase and shoot 'em up movies go, it's average.
