I'm not so sure that its a police Evo IX. There's no reason to think it is. looks like its just been pulled over. Never seen a cop car with GB number plates on it.

Wtf did they go spend that much money on an FQ400 for.. The MLR did back to back testing comparisons with the FQ320 (all recorded via data) and the 320 was just as fast if not more responsive.. what a waste of 15K... Stupid coppers... Will defo be on the lookout for this though.. sneaky gits..

Nice - wonder if they'll be fitting rally decals and a big *** exhaust

Good to know though that if some ****** nicks one of our cars the Police will be able to keep up with it.

And worth knowing in case any of us see it around and tries to race it !

I was never aware the IX is available in FQ400 guise....well, I know it's not been released yet.

also, it's got the piddly little exhaust that is standard on the GSR/FQ300.
