Yep u are, watch traffic cops on bbc1, some of the units have tuned STi's.

simonbb1328 27 August 2007 01:05 AM

Loads in north yorkshire n met have a few

Lee247 27 August 2007 01:06 AM

:eek: Really

I've not seen one Brit Law Scood. I thought this French one was the dogs :D

corradoboy 27 August 2007 01:35 AM

N.Yorks have unmarked ones too, along with unmarked Golf GTi's tricked up with 18's and tints, just to keep you off the scent :rolleyes:

What's a Scood :confused:

stewatto 27 August 2007 01:50 AM

I saw on the way to skipton north yorks. Our tax is being spent well!:thumb:

Trout 27 August 2007 08:30 AM

Hampshire had unmarked Scoobs ten years ago.

Indeed they wrote one of them off - a red one from memory.

Jaybird-UK 27 August 2007 08:50 AM

Essex Police have 2x EVO 8s, 1x MY07 STI PPP, 1x BMW 330i

All striped up :)

Jaybird-UK 27 August 2007 09:00 AM

In fact that same French police car featured on the news

YouTube - Gendarmerie Police France Subaru Impreza

Lee247 27 August 2007 09:13 AM

Well, bugger me. I have honestly never seen a Scood police car :)
I took that pic by the Millau bridge and thought it looked great. Thanks all. I will keep my eyes open from now on :D

Corradoboy, I call it a Scood :lol1:

GaryCat 27 August 2007 09:34 AM

French police sirens have more style too

YouTube - Bill Bailey - Foreign Police Sirens

Trout 27 August 2007 10:19 AM

Is that the really cool new bridge?

Was it as exciting as it looks?

Scoobychick 27 August 2007 10:25 AM

My other half used to service the Skipton Police Scoobs and used to quite enjoy taking them for a test run after :D

Jamie 27 August 2007 10:34 AM

I wish they would sort out the ecilop :)

Brun 27 August 2007 10:42 AM

Spotted that a couple of weeks back. I was looking at it as i filled up at Esso on Skippy road in Harrogate and was wondering what the lights behind the grill were for - then i spotted the two geezers in it with flouresent jackets on :eek:

Petem95 27 August 2007 12:57 PM

I wouldn't say a Scooby police car was cool - either its Police pursuit on a budget or they have chav's working in the purchasing department ;)

General UK Police cars are much cooler - BMW 5-series, Range Rover's, Mercedes etc.

fatherpierre 27 August 2007 01:00 PM

Scoobs are about as cool as a Mondeo.

Uglier, but just as cool :D

Moley 27 August 2007 09:12 PM

Sussex Police have an unmarker Evo 8 (260), and i'm pretty sure that Surrey Police had a 911 at some point, but i think they crashed that.

messiah 28 August 2007 10:53 AM

Cumbria used to have a couple, now got Evo's but the Scoob was kept on for a while as the Evo's kept having problems.

Best kind of car considering the roads up here.

Scoobies replaced the Cossies they used to have.

When it comes to police cars, IMO the Japs take a lot of beating....

Lincs Police have two hawkeyes - The marked up one has leds that look like a roof rack in the rear view mirror (!) and the unmarked gun metal silver one is totally unidentifiable as a Police car until it pulls in front of you and a little sign flips up that says POLICE STOP

There's also a black Evo, a red Octavia V6 and a couple of unmarked BMW 5 series'

My neighbour got stung by an unmarked Octavia a few weeks back, 02:30 in the morning 74 in a 60, he had to tell the cops what road they had pulled him on, they were from Boston and had maybe strayed a little off their patch??

Ive seen a marked up Blobeye knocking around Nettleham HQ but will keep eyes peeled for the unmarked ones now.
Cheers

Tissy 29 August 2007 08:36 PM

Infact Essex has 2 x EVOs and 2 x Impreza STis now. Tough job, but some one has to drive them !!

84of300 - Think Essex ones look better than the French IMO.
