Cumbria police.

stroker1 · 20-01-2007, 19:53

County Antrim - Ireland.

skud vrs · 21-01-2007, 00:11

We got unmarked ones by us 2 black and 1 silver Octy vrs.

The police must chip their cars too, because they go like stink.

pittVRS · 21-01-2007, 01:33

pixi · 21-01-2007, 18:22

I don't know who I would be more scared of, the dogs or the blokes

wonfa · 21-01-2007, 22:44

**VRStu** · 21-01-2007, 22:50

Surprised you didn't mention the fleet of them cruising the M27 John.

whitebakecase · 21-01-2007, 22:58

theres a crafty silver beast that prowls the streets of stafford, starved of its vrs badges but with giveaway strobe clusters in the back window...

Have seen a race blue on a couple of ocaisions this week along there. Flashed my lights at one on Rowner Road just up from the Lee/Stubbington roundabout. Was it you?

Parked next to one at the Churchillian on Saturday night too.

cheezemonkhai · 22-01-2007, 00:55

Yes there are a few octy I and II's on the M27 arn't there.

razor · 22-01-2007, 01:53

wish they were like the english ones and the one's in N.I least u spot them at bout 2 miles!

Braff · 23-01-2007, 06:01

There is a black octavia that prowls Tamworth and the M6 toll

neelyp · 23-01-2007, 08:13

The Octavia has also made the top ten coolest police cars

lfc958 · 23-01-2007, 14:08

Kent have 4 estate Ovty Vrs, including 1 which is a dog handlers car

( I've never see a police dog do 140 mph).

There is 1 new Octy Vrs around Maidstone, 2 unmarked do the M20 / M2 that I know of, 1 is hatch the other an estate.

So if youre on the M20 / M2 / M25 in Kent - BEWARE !

willy0329 · 23-01-2007, 18:28

the police in northhampshire had a brand new octy vrs mk2 and wrote it off two weeks later, near where i live lost it on a wet road with some twisty bits.theres also some black and silver mk1s on the m3/m27.

M.A.C · 23-01-2007, 19:25

....is Cleveland Polices ANPR car. Often to be found up and down the A66/ A19.
Note the subtle front decals, silver colour and roofrack lightbar. Sneaky.

You sure one of them isnt me in my ex-police unmarked white vrs hatch? I do M20 - M25 everyday on the way to work.

Rob_OctaviavRS · 23-01-2007, 23:54

If you ever see a white vRS round nottingham its probably me, giveaway is the blueflame exhaust and xenons, although boy racers still think its a cop car anyway!!!! That and the fact it gets driven like it should be every time I use it!

Couple of pics

orinj · 24-01-2007, 00:47

Rob_OctaviavRS >> I love the fact that you have stopped the car right across a bus lane. I'm sure your traffic calming measures are approved of by your local police force.

Don't suppose they will admit to having them 'fettled with' but it would be interesting to know if they have anything extra under the bonnet!.

pixi · 24-01-2007, 11:36

When I asked the driver of an unmarked vrs, he denied any extra power at all but did say the suspension had been sorted due to the extra kit.
