Trust the Met to go one better! :roll: Met Police, The Box Force, namely if someone else has got a shiney toy, the Met have got a box to put it in! Bless 'em! :D

One of the scariest cars I ever drove in relation to the Job, was a 3.2 V6 Vectra, on my advanced driving course. Very light on the steering and throttle, very quick revving engine, went like a bullet in a straight line.
The only problem was it didn't like corners! It was limited to 155mph; I know due to the limiter coming in at that point and me thinking "Oh Crap!" :shock:
For all those that could say, 'danger to the public etc etc' , I found driving at that speed very knackering both mentally and physically, as I was having to think not only for myself but other road users as well. Not what I would call fun, but unfortunately necessary sometimes.

We have 2 impreza's one marked and one unmarked. However the car of choice for the traffic boys is the Skoda Octiva VRS, they just love them.
Sadly I only get to play in a Ford Focus or a transit van :cry: oh and some times a skoda.
Cassillis:
We use these
The new ones still have the 'I' drive connected so you can set it how you want.
Nice and comfy, great as a motorway cruiser.
As for a pursuit car......................forget it :? :roll:
