No need, everyone knows our vehicles are far superior to all others
Especially with all those dents
In support of the MPS Traffic Department, I've got to say that I'm proud not to be part of just another force which uses Volvo T5's or similar!!

Ah, where the MET goes wrong...
But in their defence, they do use BMW 5 series'...
Lots of nice motors out there. That Oz one is the best so far though
The only thing that let's their cars down, are the horrible lightbars that they use

Have to agree with you, they're lightbars are pants, it's all to do with having the largest operational police fleet and not enough pennies to put a decent bar on all of them. Mind you at Woodway prices who can blame them!!!!
That first Aussie one is a Chrysler of some sort. There's a dealer right beside my station selling them and all the rich old dears in the area have them.
I think they are horrible. Huge big wheels and poor visibility from inside. Give me a Volvo any day. Except that Kent one which has a pretty dull livery IMHO. Have to agree with OBP actually.... (Q Battenburg Pic!)
Saw some tasty Ford Crown Vic. / Police interceptors in the States last wk too... Heavy duty ram bars, interior division screen and rear window interior iron bars, smooth looking LED lightbars, integrated tail light strobes, computer systems, ANPR, shotgun / rifle racks etc.
No wonder they have 4.2 V8 motors to drag all that cool stuff around!

Strangely, strobe lightbars may be more expensive but are easier and cheaper to maintain as the strobes last longer than conventional lights and there are no moving parts.
