Anyone remember the J reg moonstone 4x4 that was used on X-cars in the mid nineties. Can't remember the index but wonder if it's still around.

IIRC that was a ford publicity photo, not an actual tug by the police.

KSA-Cossie · 08-02-2010, 10:11 PM

VERY rare seats these m8

benporter · 08-02-2010, 10:19 PM

Hardly any of the Police cars had the so called "police spec" seats , most just had standard ones, ive seen a magenta one with them as standard.

Isnt that door card just a normal late spec one?

steves24V's · 08-02-2010, 10:23 PM

I remember years ago my mum getting pulled over by a escost cossie i thought it was brill at the time.

They are m8.

AndyPen · 08-02-2010, 10:46 PM

Geoff Dewitt used to have them in all the time and yes, most were in standard trim inside from what I recall. He did all the servicing for the Welsh Police cossies I think.

What force smashed that one up then?

J690Turbo · 08-02-2010, 10:50 PM

my mum took me to the local police open day when i was a bout 10 and they had the sapphire cos traffic car there and a competition to be taken out for the afternoon with the traffic cop, was buzzin when i won, well my mum answered all the questions for me haha! heres a pic of the car not the best pic
