R191 PKH is Humberside Police's awesome Subaru Impreza. Upgraded by Subaru specialists Prodrive, this four wheel drive, turbocharged car is highly suited to chasing cars. The suspension has been upgraded so that it can take speed humps at 70 miles per hour, and it has lightening quick acceleration and incredible road-holding. These factors mean that when a suspect car drives flat out through a red traffic light, the police can slow down, negotiate the junction at a safe speed and accelerate to catch up with the suspect with relative ease.
The side shot of the car. Notice the spoiler and gold alloy wheels. This car has a top speed of 150 mph and can get to 60 mph from a standing start in 5 seconds. This 'pursuit car' was bought for its performance and because it stands out, almost acting as a crime deterrent.

No 17's, 5 inch exhaust not de tango'd no mudflaps or front splitter bet it doesn't even have a VTA dump valve LOL

bit old.

i saw a new south yorkshire police one on balby road in doncaster yesterday and have also seen an evo one here too

Odds on

Is the story 10 years old? I can't see the Police owning a 10 year old vehicle that's to be used for chasing people.

They used to have it, but I would expect its long gone. Was used as the basis for an AutoArt model, per below:

1/18th Scale AutoArt Models - Subaru Impreza Prodrive UK Police - Diecastorama

Pic in the op, may even be of the model.

1997 ee those were the days, when 300 bhp was for rally cars, not for wifey to get to Sainsburys....

I would like to see it take most UK speed humps at 70mph
Am prity sure if it hit the ones where I used to live at that speed it would be game over

It replaced the forest spec Escort Cosworth, as it took the Orchard Park speed bumps better....
