It's better to go to the taxi meter stand outside, many people take a ticket from the booth which you will see clearly marked but I used to walk to the right where the taxi's are queueing at the back, those guys are eager for a customer and will often get out the cab and call out to you, then it's just a matter of haggling the price to pattaya.

You can usually pay around half that limo fee you quoted, or maybe just a little over half by 100/200 baht. I would usually pay 1.200 baht + tolls. It's worth noting that you can pre-book taxis with people like Mr toom's service or hotels and pay around the same as the taxi meter.
