Hey all, Just wanted to document something out of the ordinary that happened yesterday just before closing up at work. I had pulled my car out of the workshop and parked it in one of our bays so I could start bringing in other vehicles and wrapping up. About 30mins-45mins later a police twin cab D-MAX pulled up out the front of my workshop - single female driver. She was in the car for a bit but I noticed her looking around and then get out and open up the back tray of her vehicle. I thought nothing of it... That was until the boys from the shop next to me informed me today that she got out a camera and started photographing my car. She was out the front for no longer than 15-20mins then as we walked outside to leave she did a U-turn and drove away. To my recollection I have no reason to be of interest to police especially seeing as my car has just come out of the workshop after 7-8months in the build and I have a clean drivers record. It was driven twice that day, once to the autoelectricians then once back - no cops in sight, following me or pulling me over. Just wondering if anyone else has had this happen or something similar? It's playing on my mind as with the new hooning laws, I'm wondering if they're documenting imports and adding them to a database on their systems.

Hi All, dont use this anymore since I moved from the west, been used for 6 months, works perfect. 100% undetectable by ALL police radar detector detectors, longest range detection of any radar detector. Dot Matrix display, control panel, speaker and everything it comes with new, I still have it all packed in the box. Detects all Police radar and laser devices. Mounts remotely behind grill, has display and control buttons in the cabin, all discreet. This is the Aussie model, not an import, was purchased from WA and is programmed for Australia. This unit RRP for $1500 AUD but will sell this for $699. review done here: http://veilguy.blogspot.com.au/2008/01/ces-2008-exciting-time-for-radar.html

I'm thinking of buying a radar detector for my R34. I'm not a hoon and I don't speed but I do want to be cautious. I was wondering if any of you guys get picked on from cops for having radar detectors. There's a shop in Perth that sells radar detectors and they say it's 100% legal in WA. http://www.radarsdirect.com.au/faq/ Can cops in WA pick up signals from radar detectors and will know that you have one? I'm looking at buying the Valentine 1 as it seem to be the popular choice

No, this could be a contentious topic as a lot of us have seen a selection of the below in our rear view mirrors before, but once you separate yourself from your emotions, you might just agree with me that we have some of the coolest and best looking cop cars in the world. Keep in mind, I dont include Dubai in this tally as Dubai cop cars are just nuts.... Ferrari FF Lamborghini Aventador Aston Martin One-77 And, of course, the Bugatti Veyron Ok, so, now for the Australian cars! Holden SS & Ford XR6 Turbo HSV GTS Ford F150 Raptor Porsche 911 So .... What do you think? Is there another country that can rival us for cool cop cars? I know there are some Lamborghinis in Italy and some M5s in Germany and the odd Jaguar XF in Britain and an occasional Corvette in the States. What is your fave?

Careful guys, NSW Police have added some real firepower to the Highway Patrol squad. Volvos. Yep. Volvos. http://www.news.com.au/national/nsw-act/volvo-xc60-joins-nsw-police-highway-patrol-ranks/news-story/49399f5932c4c48ad9d4307fe4970c61 How do you feel about being pulled over by one of these?
