O, one thing I forgot to say was that the cars that say rendorseg are fakes. If you find others, it is obvious.

Hate to burst your bubble but most of them are fake.

Even the real pictures are from Police cars that don't really exist, ok they do exist but are not used as Police cars.
For instance the Dutch Police Spyker is made for showpurposes, same goes for the Porsche 911 wich is made by Techart in germany, and it not used as a real police car.

The 2 Lamborghinis are normal roadcars that have vinyls on them and blue lights on them, most likely a Joke or as showcar.

If I remember right the CLS is a Photoshop car or also a tuner company showcar, don't know anymore.

As you said yourself the Mustang is not real eighter but also a PS work.

As far as I know in the UK they do use Impreza's, in the Netherlands they did use Porsche 911 964 targa's as police cars but where removed from service in the 90's because they where very expensive to maintain.
Here is a pic of the real car:

Our cops use WRXs too, but the older ones. They also use XR8 Falcons and SS Commodores.

Theres a police spec Evo IX FQ360 Estate (import jobbie) that runs as a pusuit car around Gloucestershire.

-EDIT-

Stig, the UK Lambos are demonstrator cars. There were police-graphic'ed at request by the Metropolitan Police and used as press cars. They have now been reverted to standard.

I've got a pic of one on the road, somewhere.

I read in a mag somewhere that Victoria had a yellow Holden CV8 highway patrol car. Not sure it if it's still in use though.

We only have one "special" cop car here in Finland, which is a Jaguar S-Type R with 395bhp.
The other cop cars in Finland are just Ford Mondeos and VW Transporters with normal engines.

Here's the Jag:

The only special police cars I've seen are the new Chargers in Georgia and Camaro interceptors in New Mexico.

As for the 2 Lambos, wouldn't it be ilegal to impersonate police cars? And the 911 IS acually used occasionaly, but not often. Also, the Spyker, even though they don't use it, technicaly it is still a cop car.

That FD Cop Car is noice. It's pretty boring here in New York. Just a handful of Chargers.

Why the hell is there a Honda Oddessy in the background in the upper right hand corner?

bashderq · Post by **bashderq** » 18 Apr 2007, 05:00

That's because there isn't one, its a Commodore estate.

Carcrazy · Post by **Carcrazy** » 18 Apr 2007, 05:16

I'm telling you thats a honda, my friend's mom had one.

Post by **TheStig** » 18 Apr 2007, 05:34

No it's not it's a Holden.

Man even I can see it's a Holden, look at the grill mate.

Ooh and drftkng, I don't know wich 911 you are talking about but the Techart 997 was never used by the police it was just a showcar.
The 911 Targa's where used by the Dutch police but are long gone.
As for the Spyker, as soon as the show was over it returned to it's normal self, vinyls removed and lights removed.

I'm telling you it's a Commodore wagon. Pay attention.

You heard him, bash, he's an expert on Odyssies (or whatever the plural of odyssey would be).

O noes! An expert! How dare I correct his holiness...

The Murcielago is the exact same car that TG used in one of its episodes (when it was yellow), it is indeed just a PR car.

We do, however, use Evos (mainly 6s), Impreza WRX and I believe there is a few Escort Cosworths still in service somwhere.
