Tillingdale

It was founded in 2000[1] to provide furniture management and horse breeding services under the name Gigginstown House Stud.

[7] The stud farm operation owned the 2006–Cheltenham Gold Cup winning horse War Of Attrition.

[3][6][8][9] The company owns a 2007–Mercedes-Benz S-Class taxi,[10][11] with Mullingar hackney carriage licence MG99[3][12][13] purchased on a yearly basis from Westmeath County Council[5] for upwards of €6,000.

[15][16][17][18][19][20][21] The Mercedes taxi primarily operates between Ryanair's headquarters at Dublin Airport, and Michael O'Leary's home in Mullingar[10][22][23]—a fare of around €86 (£82) each way.

[26] At the end of 2011, the single-owner Mercedes S500L was put up for sale with an asking price of €20,000, under the description of "Ireland's most famous taxi" and showing 275,000 kilometres on the odometer.
