I've heard they wrote one of the scoobs off, possibly the green one...

 

Norfants Police are the proud owners of Three Scooby saloons and a sh*t load of Volvo T5's in various forms and guises.

Shame they don't put more coppers on the beat instead of in fast cars. - soft targets us motorists.

Rant over!

 

Just to let you guys know.
There is a Red UK Scooby that covers the Basingstoke area of Hampshire
*** ***. I attended a GTI-R meet last night and it pulled up - the coppers were friendly enough but their quote was "If you're in Hampshire footing it - we'll play!" So there you go! The amount of toys in the thing was amazing!

FYI - I've also seen a green 4-door on the M3 in the same area...

 

ha ha thats why its fun to own a red scoob in Hampshire coz people think its the Police one at first and get out the way ha ha !!

They don't just have two!!!!!!

Be warned though, that they also have a T5 saloon (Dark Green) that patrols the new road area too, just in case you see one whilst being over zealous with your right foot!

 

So there are at least two red Scoobs in the UK then...

Rannoch - I like to feel that individuality is the word here ha ha !!

Seen the T5 mentioned by Ronaldo.. stopped some poor guy on the M3 jnc 4A roundabout.. smack bang in the middle... caused more traffic holdups than a tractor at rush hour.. typical police thinking i guess !!!

 

In reference to DrEvils' post. They used to have a red UK one a couple of years ago, but it got stuffed into the back of a lorry on the A303, I'm told it wasn't in pursuit at the time....

 

Notts Police have 2 marked saloons, 2 marked wagons and 3 red unmarked saloons all fully kitted out with the latest electronics.

Always been friendly when approached, one even waved ( or did he want me to pull over )

Kust for your info, They still have the Red Scooby in Hampshire, I was at Chapelgate in Ferndown the other day and it was in waiting for a new engine. The dealer did tell me that it had had a big rear-ender.
It was parked on the hard-shoulder when it got 'whacked'.
Watch out it's still about!

Thats quite True Sparks, according to the coppers on Wednesday, it should have been written off but it got a new shell or something and it's back on the road - the same one I saw, they probably thought that was cheaper than kitting anohter one out.

 

re: the coppers were friendly enough but their quote was "If you're in Hampshire footing it - we'll play!"

So is this "playing" why the hampshire police keep writing their scoobies off?

We have been here and this has all been covered many times before.
BTW , why are they B****rds ? You would soon want their help if your car got lifted.

Jeez! Where have you guys been? The rozzers have had three STi tuned impreza's for about three years now... one red (looks just like mine), one green and one blue "terzo" look a like, which actually has a light cluster fitted to the roof! Saw this last one at an RTA on the A27 by Havant about a month ago. Don't forget the two Red Vento VR6's, the black four door 328tds and the burgendy T5 Saloon...... B****RDS!
