    Thought this may be of benefit...

    Spotted M42 south between J6 and J5 was a Black Subaru WRX STI Impretza complete with large spoiler, i clocked it straight away.

    Very noticable were the 2 'hidden' lights behind the grille.

    If you see an undercover police car, let us know where you saw it.

    Common things that make a undercover police car stand out are

    • extra aerials
    • no GB sticker or europlates
    • no tow bar
    • shilloette of object (camera) below interior mirror
    • two occupants
    • possible board between rear haedrests and rear window


    Please DO NOT post full registration plates of any undercover cars - Forum Staff

    It just isn't British fair play is it? Underhand and sneaky, what we need is more patrol cars out there brightly marked and obvious to stop muppets in Corsa’s causing havoc.

    Notts - Volvo V70 "06" plated
    Black Honda Accord type R
    Skoda Octavia VRS

    LIncs - Vectra 3.2 Black "06" plated
    BMW 5 series tourer silver
    Silver Skoda VRS "51" plated

    Could give you the full registration of the Notts Volvo but that would give the game away on the M1

    Black Volvo c70 on the A38 at Ashburton, Devon. Only giveaways I saw was the extra wingmirrors and two guys in the front wearing black jackets over their uniforms. I smiled politely at them as I passed, and they cheerfully smiled back...

    Two unusual ones I've seen:
    M6 (just where the M5 north bound joins) a 7 Series BMW! I thought a 5 series would have been good enough!

    Just off the M6 / M62 interchange a couple of years ago, I was on my way home from work and one of the roads was closed due to an incident (I never saw it mentioned in the news though). I saw a\ Vauxhall Cavalier Estate that must have been about a D-reg! It had flashing lights and the lot.

    a m8 got pulled on his Sp1 ( 1000cc bike) by an old vectra , wheel trims missing , rusting paint work, dented the lot , he couldnt beleive it , got pulled doing well over 100mph at 2am as he was getting a ferry to Ireland !!!

    He thought it was prision time and said he almost poo,ed his pants , the copper got out , saw how shocked he was , and said ,

    " nice bike , but keep it down abit "

    He also said , dont always expect us to be in a nice shiny car either


    Apparently there was something special under the bonnet , cause my m8 said it was sticking with him , from a distance !!!

    So be careful , they are out there !!!

    Theres 2 different Volvo c70's i've seen on the M56, a royal blue one and a silver one.

    And also round the airport and mancunian way i've spotted a sooby (in blue) and a silver BMW 5 series.

    Oh, and Trafford police have an A3! (in charcoal grey IIRC)

    It's just sneaky.
