Today I Saw...

[DanBoy]

An unmarked FTO being used as a Police vehicle...

Bit of a weird choice, innit?

Kind of a middle ground between the crappy black Astra and the black Scooby WRX that I also saw.

hmm....
police eh?
and FTO would never keep up with a scoob...
but it does make the maxxers try and race you so perhaps bait?

Exactly what I thought.

As I did my three-point-turn to drive the wrong way up the A3, away from the scene on an accident yesterday, I noticed one copper on the side of the road make a "keep it down" gesture with his hand...

I was only in second gear at the time, doing 20mph and about to slot it into third! I reckon they must be keeping an eye on Japanese cars owners in general.

Perhaps just keeping an eye on Jap cars generally,what with all the Scooby thefts recently,Surrey area iirc.

Gaz has posted a link to the report further down this page.

Keep an eye out for the unmarked Mitsubishi Evo down in Sussex as well, it usually ploughs up and down the A27 & A23. Needless to say noone has outrun it yet!

I can say from personal experience that the Evo8 + Class 1 driver is a pretty amazing combination... my job allows me to witness such things from the passenger seat!!
