I bought the DVD recently and was dismayed to find that the hilarious taxi scene has been completely removed. Are there any known DVD versions that have this scene?
shareIf you are in the UK, Sky digital has multiple showings of the film, the Limo scene and some extended bedroom scenes are added to the film
shareApparently the version aired out of Fox in Dubai doesn't show the limo/bedroom scene for the Ramadan movie marathon.

... but it's OK to show American soldiers shooting and killing other arabs? That sounds legit...
"That was a courtesy flush. I'm not actually done yet"
In Dubai apparently, some person has to black out any offending magazin cover - you know too much skin on show - before it is sold
Watched it on tv here in the uk, limo scene was there
It's on youtube, just search for hot shots limo.

I couldnt believe how chopped to hell the dvd was, when the film came out it was rated 12 then when it was released on dvd it was a PG and they cut out an entire 5 minutes, basically the entire limo scene and the bedroom scene that follows it.
This just goes to show the massive hypocrisy the BBFC has when rating films because The Fifth Element is a PG and has a lot more sexual content and nudity in it.
Last name? I'd rather not say
Buy a DVD from somewheere else in Europe (Germany, Spaion, France).
They even feature English Menus.
Here's a German website that shows (in pictures) what is missing in the UK-DVD
