When I was getting T999 SKY I came accross T999 RTA. Think it was on a Police car.

My plate was only £250 from DVLA which I thought was okay.

Saw a Police S1 Elise down South a few years ago, looked really cool. Was there not an Esprit in Police livery as well a while ago ?

I'm sure somewhere had an JagXJ220 as a police car back when it was the fastest production car on the planet. Might have been a publicity stunt as well mind.

Tayside police had/have a BMW M5 though, that would have cost more than a real police Exige surely?

No i thought the turbo has the air intakes at the side (i dont know maybe i m wrong?!) and usually has a hot model in the vicinity!!

I remember seeing something about some eastern block country who got first dibs on all cars seized from drug dealers etc, so they where scooting about in some lovely motors
