Talking to a friend who is in 'the job' and he said the guys prefer the octy to the BMW's they have on the fleet!!

Nice one

Hi, new to this site as just got Fabia vrs last week.

The GMP Octavia is an 07 reg. It is one of 9 unmarked vehicles in the unit I work in (together with the liveried Subaru)

They aren't used for traffic enforcement generally (unless its REALLY bad!), and are used to target thieving scum car jackers mainly.

I would have to say it doesn't disgrace itself against the Subaru's or Audi A3 3.2 quattro's, and blends in much better with other traffic, which comes in handy sometimes!

Main downside is acceleration in the wet, where it obviously loses out to the 4 wheel drive traction of the others.

Ive seen the A3's chasing chavs in a scooby...

Speaking of GMP, I'm sure I saw an unmarked silver 51 plate vrs and an unmarked purple astra convertible (the bertone one) in Salford yesterday. Proper :confused: for the astra.
