Hold on I'll go and take a pic


Luciano

 

 

While I've been fighting with fucking photobucket someone has beaten me to it, the very same pic that I have

Luciano

 

There is a colour version somewhere...I think someone on the FSOC has it...

 

that looks lush, bet the cars back then couldnt really get away from it, unless it broke down

 

Thats got to have been better than the wanky old Rovers they had at the time.

 

^
I remember seeing an old police camera action when the comentator stated "and in their high power police car" at which point an old shonky rover slipped or rather fell into view lol.
I use to love the (cough) vauxhall senators.

 

its not been taxed since 1995 !!! if that helps

 

Devon and Cornwall Police had a few and there were some in Bridgend, South Wales. I always remember a blown up 4x4 in Geoff Dewitts motorsport being repaired. They put a new engine in at the Police depot - but no oil!!!

 

here's a better pic of one

 

I built myself a Scalextric one of these when I was a kid


But while finding that pic I found this aswell

 

Spankin pic, indy

 

That could mean its still about and laid up somewhere

One of my mate "felt in love" with the sapphire cosworth when he saw on the TV-news like 15 years ago a small subject about the "high-speed excess on the swiss roads" and the TV went in a police car. Then they had to chase a guy and at some point the police guys said : "He is too fast for us, asking support, the guy has a Sierra Cosworth". How kewl

 

I beleive it is in the Police Museum, in Hendon.
tabetha

 

my old 4x4 saff was ex police car would be great to get pic of it when it still had stickers and lights etc. here a pic of it when i owned it i broke the car in the end to fit 4x4 running gear into my 3 door

 

Shame you broke it but if you needed the running gear it had to be done, my pic and the other 2wd pic both had sunroofs but yours did not

Luciano

 

I know of 1 which is being rebuilt not sure on reg number is ex police no sunroof model. cant be many left

 

heres one i got to go for a ride in when i was 9 after winning a competition at the local police open day, my first time in a cossie, a bit of a bad pic thou

 

pity you cant see the reg you never know lol

 

i thought all police cosworths had no sun roof and i been told some had base model sierra seats?

 

i think the cop 4x4's had no sunroof and the 2wd ones did have them

not sure about the 2wd, but the 4x4 cop ones had a different seat material in them (non leather) cant remember what its called, but more smoother and rugged than the normal cloth stuff

the actual seat was dark grey, with a coloured recaro logo stitched into them

 

got this pic too

 

They were black with red recaro stitched on them.

 

i knew it was something like that, couldnt remember if was black or grey, so put dark grey

(dark grey = black )

awesome

 

I would love to get a set of those seats
