The Police in Nottingham had quite a few clasic shape Impreza's but id guess these are coming to the end of there life now and i havnt seen them of the road for a while.
It always gave me a good feeling pulling up next to one at the trafic lights ...duno why

At least 4 Skipton (North Yorks) based. 2 marked and 2 unmarked (blue and silver).

I've sat in the back of one and I got a 555 pound fine

Cheers,

Ian.

You would think they would give special dispensation to us Scooby drivers, or is it the only thing they can drive to catch us !

North Yorks police are the best customer or Wilding (Kendal) service dept. They had one on the ramps when i took my car in for its first service, and was talking to the guy on the service desk about them. Apparently they get through allsorts of parts on them.
