OK. I'll say it.
It'll never happen. They'll want to have something;
  • Easier & cheaper to run
  • With lower service costs and intervals
  • More reliable and easier to live with
  • More practical
But just as quick...



Another endorsement

I don't care how many bright stickers it has....if it doesn't have flashing blue lights as well as being fully marked and a uniformed officer driving, I ain't stopping.

You won't have to, its a show car. Donated for taking to shows to promote road safety etc. Notice its parked outside a Mitsubishi dealer too and not a police officer in sight.

And the scoobies are used by the air ambulance people for a reason

Errrrrr......

Guys as Anger said there is one on the M23/A27 and surounding area. Don't be so sure it's the "Slow" version"
I suspect it was also stickered up for the recent conference in Brighton

Unmarked silver/grey one near the A23/M23 I believe has its lair just off the A2300 (A23 to Burgess Hill).


Name and shame - the reg plate is, AFAIK, WX04 LGU.

It has an additional aerial on the roof, and normally has mesh blinds down over the rear screen.

Lets be careful out there...

I always Wave

what gets me is the police wrote on the way it is, now before anyone starts, i know the reason why its like that, but for fu** sake, if the lights and graphics dont give it away first, ad say your pretty stupid and the just because police is wrote so you can see it in your RVM aint gonna make a hape of a difference lol

and we paid for all this sh**.

so, we should all do fiddle work, we can get more money as we wont have to pay tax and NI, therefore we can afford to buy even faster cars or mod them even further, and the best bit, the BBB wont be able to afford any of these machines to catch us lol
