If your in the Midsomer Norton/Radstock/Westfield area (you know who you are!), heard on the grapevine the ploice have some new undercover cars. Brand new Audi RS6's in black, couple of them. Jammy b******s, almost makes you want to be a copper! (no offence if anyone is in the police :ashamed:)
-
RS6 is a great Police car BUT

....Wow! Pics like that take me back to the days when it was possible to outrun a police car (something I most definitely wouldn't even think of doing now).
Think Ford Anglia 105 with the raked back rear window but with a 1,500cc engine and modded suspension! Or an Austin Sixteen with a Healey engine etc. Those were the days of my youth.

Not many police cars will keep up with this :evilgrin:

With a decent pair of trainers i think most people could outrun one of those. Did they run on 2 star petrol???

'Discreet' unmarked cars then yeah?
-
we get BMW estates and hot Skodas round these parts, i have personal experience of both :grin:

.
Big Beemer estates in my neck of the woods too and not much else except a grey Mondeo which trailed me for over 10 miles, some of which was in the 90s, and then let me off with just a warning that my only fault was speed and that he never wanted to see me again - The feeling was mutual and I shook his hand! I think he was a bit surprised and probably relieved that I didn't hug him!

i may be way off the mark here.... but isnt there a law that states they have something like 2 miles in which to follow a vehicle and then they must pull it over or release else its a form of harassment?
if they are in pursuit its different of course
it may just be a pub myth though but im sure ive heard that somewhere
-
Anyone ever played follow the Police car. Try it one day if you haven't.
It can get very entertaining :evilgrin:

Not heard that before. Got followed home once from Brighton to Horsham, approx 20 miles. By the time he stopped me I just wanted to punch him for scaring the hell of me (didn't obviously). Then spent 10 mins sat in the back of his cruiser watching me on TV and listening to the smug sod go on about speeding and like his Bi**h I just kept saying sorry!! Got away with it anyway.

....Well, in my case I was actually very glad he followed me for 10 miles which included me rigidly staying under 30 through a village and not booting it until my shoulders were level with the GLF (aka NSL) sign and also doing textbook positioning and distances for overtakes. If he had only seen me flash by at ninety-something he would doubtless have thrown the book at me.
I knew the car was there at a decent distance matching my speed but didn't realise it was an unmarked Police car.
I actually have a great deal of respect for the unmarked cars that follow you for long enough to see how you are driving and then use some discretion and intelligence.

I passed under a couple of our less than inconspicuous boys in blue sat on the bridge over the M3 at J7 this evening.
Thankfully they didn't need me to help them with their enquiries so once they were out of sight back up to cruising speed. :wink:

Was that above the mentioned speed earlier? :wink:

No. I decided to test my big brakes as I hadn't used them for a while. :wink:
