I love the Porsche 911. But they had to spend $100,000+ on the car and not get a low profile lightbar? I'd like to meet that resource adminstrator and kick 'em right in the ass. Sounds a little like like BS.
There was rumours around that cops in Brisbane were using their personal cars, because there was all sorts pulling people over. But I found out recently that the QLD Police have been buying unusual cars and fitting them out with radars and police equipment.
I've heard of; Commodore Utes, Hummers, Corollas, Subaru Liberties, Pajero's and....................... A Land Rover with a TRAILER!!!!!
It's cool that they're using unexpected cars to get people, but it's scary!
Well actually it should be an extraordinarily smooth ride at its top speed of 365 km/h. And without the lightbar on top I bet it could go another 10 km/h.
I'd be perfectly happy with a '49 Mercury Police Patrol car.....[/QUOTE
I agree with you 100% there Lucky! the 49,50, and 51 Mercs were IMO, among the coolest old cars from that era! Cool looking body in stock form, just begging to be chopped and dropped.
