Interesting Police Car
« on: 29 December 2011, 16:23 »
Car just pulled up outside my work and flicked blue strobes in the front bumper on. Nothing unusual you might think in that but it was an 02 plate Seat Leon Cupra.

At first I thought it a little dodgy as there are some nice cars in our car park, they parked up and went across the fields though so I thought I would go and have a nose. Deffo a police car and definately a sleeper, no extra aerials etc just another blue strobe (small though) in the top of the windscreen and a police issue stab vest in the back seat. Oh and a vascar or whatever its called console on the dash.

What I want to no is what type of police are the ones that suddenly appear flying along in black bmws with lights behind front grill. See them every now and again. With realy important looking police in front and back flying past 2 at a time with lights blazing.

i think you will find they are training cars, we have a couple of white insignia's that are running around here in wiltshire. plus if you are not so lucky you may see a silver bmw x5 behind you with his disco lights on.

Plain clothed plod in it btw. Sneaky sods, it sounded like it had been 'tweaked' too.
