Default SMART Traffic car spotted on M25

Has anyone else seen this?
Was on my way to Brands Hatch yesterday afternoon, and spotted this traffic police SMART car
Still giggling about it now
"Sorry sir, you're gonna have to accompany me to the station. If you'd like to get in the back there sir...........urm.........maybe not........."
Thing is, once people realised what it was, they gave up bothering to slow down!
I'd swear there were people pointing and laughing as they drove past
"Urm, BD to Z-VICTOR-1, yes control, am currently in a high speed pursuit. Can confirm vehicle is being driven at erratic speeds, in excess of 20miles-per-hour. Vehicle is Massey Ferguson tractor, we're struggling to keep up........."

If one was chasing you, you could slow down, let them pull along side and ge your passenger to push them over on their side.

Thieves will stop nicking cars now but thefts of Nike Air trainers may well soar

Cant believe none of you have seen them before.

They were sold into Police Forces specifically for community response units (ie: door to door enquires etc...) NOT for traffic
