Speaking to The Scottish Sun, the musical driver says he loves entertaining riders with his unusual style.
Rolf, who uses the handle @RolfsRides on Instagram, said: "I was a singer years ago and I was in a heavy rock band.
"I'm a very social person. I love my job, I love singing and I love driving. I thought it would be good to combine the two and get some exposure in the taxi.
"It's much more fun for me when I'm doing my job if other people are having a good time.
"I'm just trying to do something different.
"I'm like a lyrics database, there's a lot of songs I can sing."
Rolf adds a special touch to his service by greeting passengers in a kilt or a tartan waistcoat.
He added: "When I pull up and open the door to the passengers they turn to each other as if to say 'what have you ordered?'
"But I think they are generally just in awe.
"I work at night so I get a lot of students and the party crowd. I get out and open doors for the passengers, I wear my kilt at the weekend, and I try and wear my suit throughout the week with my tartan waistcoat.
"At the end of the day it's a business. There are a lot of other Uber drivers who don't speak to their passengers.
"It's an opportunity to meet people and be social and have a bit of fun while you're at work."
The cabbie says he is regularly contacted by punters who want to hire him for a journey.
He added: "I've been trying to sort out a booking system so hopefully that will be up and running soon."
