All 92 cars tested during October, November and December passed first time.

This is a rise from previous sessions held last March and August, when 94% and 96% of taxis inspected passed at the first test.

Councillor Gerry McMullan, the chairman of Fife Council's regulation and licensing committee, said: ''We are delighted at this news and of the work and standards achieved by our taxis here in west Fife.

''This is a true reflection of the focus and high standards adopted by the various companies and drivers operating here in west Fife.''

The council's fleet maintenance manager Tom Henderson said the 100% pass rate was ''exceptional and worth noting''.
