2013 Range Rover Sport SDV6 HSE Stornoway Grey
RRS police training cars

2 Supercharged Sports in Silver and Black , 4 uniformed police in each ....................... storming along the A811 headed east toward Stirling at way over the speed limit overtook me this afternoon (I was sat at 60 on the cruise and they just disappeared over the horizon in seconds, playing at catch and chase. No police marking on them except for a small notice on the back as the "chase" car screamed passed................. Police Driver Under Instruction. At the speed they were doing it must have been High Speed Pursuit instruction! I thought they weren't allowed to exceed the speed limit unless they were on an emergency call.................................. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

When a Police Officer is on a driving course he or she has an automatic right to drive at whatever speed he or she thinks fit except when in a 30 mph zone.

In my opinion they should be clearly marked as POLICE cars when involved in high speed chase persuits - whether real or not!

Just stick a 'Chase' care sticker in the back of yours and roar around in a white short sleeve shirt with a black tie!

2013 Range Rover Sport SDV6 HSE Stornoway Grey

I saw an M3 convertable pulled over on the hard shoulder of the M6 yesterday with an unmarked, silver police car with blue lights behind the grille parked behind it........... it was a Skoda Octavia unmarked police car. Whatever next unmarked Micras? 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

We have uprated several Police Skoda Octavia 1.8 Turbo cars and they are all now running at 250 bhp...you have been warned!

We have also uprated 12 TDV6's for the Police but dont worry none of them will go faster than 115 mph Wink

You don't chip up white vans to 400bhp do you? Because I get quite a few roaring up behind me when I'm in the GT3, if so you might need to remap the chips, becos they do seem to struggle after a short blip on the accelerator! Laughing HSE TD6 (Java Black/Ivory)
