Well done the D-MAN, you son have the Luxembourg thing going on.

i used to own a 3DR Cos originally from LUXEMBOURG, Lhd and white
and i checked to see if it was a ex Gendarm motor.
it wasn't but i would of bought it anyway, as Luxembourg
plod and their Cosworths were well looked after

I seem to remember Kent police having two 2wd saphs when I was a kid. They were based at Swanley J3 of the M25. I'm sure they both got written off though.

heres the one they had here in hull

This was one Cosworth that only the bravest of thieves would have tried to nick back in the early 90s. The Police decided that if they were going to have any chance whatsoever of catching all the stolen Escort Cosworths, they needed one themselves. Some were standard, but in Humberside the Vehicle Crime Unit teamed up with Ford Motorsport to created a tuned 250 bhp beat car with competition suspension, OZ wheels and under-body protection.
now they have this
