I`ve just read today that Leicestershire Police are using unmarked BLACK Fabia VRS patrol cars. Just a warning to you all, that not all VRS drivers are friendly!:thumbdwn:

Was a piece on it in Autocar this week saying they chose the Fabia to goad people into trying to race it. Apparantely women are particularly susceptible!

Police officers are very friendly When you break the law they are still friendly. It just at that point that YOUR perception changes!!

police entrapment eh??

OK, I'm moving to Leicestershire because the drivers there will be more courteous towards me!

Badge snobs will be owned by this undercover car - they'll see a Skoda and just have to overtake at all costs lmao

You could be right!! I do hope so!! :rofl:

There is a black Fabia vRS in the Carlisle area.

As the unfriendly stern look at 130mph told me..

I should know better, but the look was enough to slow me down, and he was in a bigger hurry than me:thumbup:

I love policemen, and women ( not in THAT way obviously, not policemen anyway:D )

Guilty

It must be the thrill of the chase

There must be no criminals, so the Police are after innocent motorists again!!

But if you're innocent then they can't be after you

I am not innocent, and as long as there is such a stupid law, will continue to break it!!

They dont wait around Schools and built up areas, its empty motorways in the middle of the night when they get you, while some poor bugger is getting burgled!!!

I think you'll find though that more lives are lost due to motorists than burglars, so while tw@ts continue to break the law and kill people on the roads, the police need to keep patroling them and thus saving lives.

Tis a very lame reason to choose a Furby Verse as a patrol car.

Check out the safe speed website.

Speeding does not kill, poor driving, and not driving to suit conditions does!!

Obviously the twonk in a Citroen Xsara who sped up from 50 mph (which he'd been doing for 4 miles) to 70 mph whilst I was overtaking him on a single carriageway near here (in Leicestershire) hadn't read about the black Fabia vRS police cars rather similar to mine.

no unmarked police fabia's in risca/newport just a very nice mondeo st tdci reg no ce5* bhp it likes trying to get people to race (very sucessful may i add) havent even seen a marked up skoda police car in my area! cardiff has a very nice impreza patrol car though!

i saw unmarked black octy 2 on the m4 by j33 the other night but it did have a blue light like starsky and hutch had (may have been a fire car though)

I guess that would explain why I get alot of cars slow down as they pass me. I guess the extra lights/gauges confuse them.
