I saw that, obviously en-route to a job on the ring road last week. I suspect it's a demo car i'll make a few phone calls and find out?

Unlikely they'll be spending a lot on dedicated Traffic cars in Nott's as the "Traffic Department" is being dis-banded on April 1st.

Just wait until the cops get those Rover 385's! 0-100 in 11 secs!! not bad for a rather discreet car IMHO (well it is a rover aint it! )

Tony,

The ZT385 may only be a Rover, but its V8 rear wheel drive, and all models will be built for Rover by "Prodrive"!!!

Should be the next performance bargain of the decade Lee i just wonder how easy it will be to tune that car to 450-500bhp think the police ones are going to be tuned anyway

Mikey. You have mail, sorry it's so long.

Phil. No joke, the Nott's traffic department have gone. Been "re-distributed, just like the drugs squad were some while back.

They must have a few demonstrators as I'm sure I sam a similarly marked BMW estate yesterday.... probably just trialling them?


Mike.
