just wondering if any one on here has an ex police car that is a cossie as my mate had one

pics would be great

 

had two sapphires both j plates, no sunroofs.

 

any pics mate

 

havent had one but here is one.

 

never knew they had escos's seen the saphs

 

i remember seing that programme blues & two's in hull..they had escort cossies with uprated suspension for going up kerbs & speed bumps at high speed

 

no, sold both at decent money straight away

 

 

Im sure Greater Manchester had 1 or 2 that were supposedly about 330bhp and group n spec suspension etc with sump guards and on OZ rims

 

Both of mine were standard except the inertia switches had be bypassed as the crooks had found that if they rammed the cop cars the switch tripped!!

 

Here's mine

Doug i have the original picture of that police car and is framed with a plaque that says its the first 4x4 sapphire cosworth into police service and it was presented to the northumbria police by Geoff king from "ford motor co"

 

Here is my saff and defender!!!



Tayside 4x4 circa 91/92

 

The original picture

I love hearing stuff like that, it's all part of the hetitage that makes Cosworths "special".....

 

Im sure it was in an early Max power or Fast car or something similar at the time as well as local TV.

 

i remember years ago seeing a saff that had all the stickers taken off but the dirt had got on the glue that was left so you could see where all the stickers were.
looked a bit of a mess,was late 4x4 i think.

not been on the road since 2002 so i doubt it

 

manchester had lots of saffs some unmarked plenty marked up,they had the later style wheels no sunroofs and hidden blue lamps.they destroyed gearboxes all the time ,quicks in ashton always had them in for repair.

 

Me and my friend was driving through horsham last month and we got pulled over by the police in a grey evo 8, for driving whilst on a phone.

 

They had too pay Ł75 compensation

 

i remember the police having mk.2 rs 2000's....i think i'm getting old.

they have had early saffs and late saffs.

 

There used to be a couple of escort and saph marked cars up this way, i remember coming through the tyne tunnel once and there was an escort and saph parked together at 1 end looked mint

 

and sunbeam lotus`s

 

was watching traffic cops the other night and see a white three door getting chassed up to 130 mph until the driver realised the police where chassing him he then pulled over, but i tell ya he was leaving them quick
