Hey everyone, I thaught i'd start this topic after what i saw this morning on my way to work. There was a dude pulled over (not an import or anything just a random car) by a new mitsubishi magna i think the 380 or something.. brand new and those little lights on top where the rear view mirror is were going off aswell. Its pretty funny seeing one of those types of cars pulling people over but at the same time you think to yourself oh shit what else do the cops drive these days?

The weirdest car i've seen them in was a bug eyed WRX, Black and completely standard... pulled another wrx over who probably tried racing them LOL

So yea I was just wondering if anyone else has seen any of the other cars they drive around in.... I suppose not only just in VIC but all over Aus if anyone has seen them in unusual vehicles...

But i suppose you wouldn't really worrie about it if you had nothing to hide... true? :P

EDIT: Looks like this topic has turned out to be a COP CAR IN GENERAL topic... feel free to add any pictures of cop cars you've seen around or that exist around the world :)

There's nothing unusual about the police using Aussie built cars, like 380s - I'm pretty sure they have to.

I think there's a 300C going around at the moment, but it's one of those overdone highway-patrol style ones - where you'd be pretty embarassed if you didn't see it (attempting to) hide on a freeway.

Yea its pretty hard to miss them sometimes... those cars on the side of the roads are they actually appart of a differnt group? like they wont chase you if your speeding just give you a fine in the mail i think... I've seen a subaru forester aswell unmarked in the city pulled someone over...

So the 300C's are starting to go around aswell... hmmmm i'll keep an eye out for em

theres a heap of different cars they use... Monaros... Magnas... Evos... Rexes... Rodeos... Undisclosed large 4WD (cant remember which make it was)... and heap of others.

i remember someone telling me they had a 34 GTR and Supra too.

Ive only ever seen em in the usuals... WRX... Falcons... Rodeos... 4WDs... Only seen them in a Yellow Monaro once... and the usual SSs and so on.

I've got pics of the 300c from my window at work. Will post them up later.

Sweet as i'd love to see what it looks like.... check this one out from.. i have no idea but you'd have a good chance of getting away from them :P

saw a lime green XR6T i think it was yest in the city on lonsdale street.. Unmarked and u wouldn't think they would have something unmarked that stood out that much...

Yea thats very true... you just wouldn't pick em at all thats the funny thing... usually you can see in their back window if there's lights sitting there but you can't see anything from the front. A friend of mine who had a 180sx ran a VY SS only to find at the next set of traffic lights he was a cop LOL dickhead...

Prahran TMU have a Forester XT

Remember too, if you see a Hyundai Santa Fe parked on the side of the road, it's a speed camera - as no one else would ever buy one.

LOL.. i've seen them in some weird ass cars on the side of the road, older commodores station wagons and rav 4's n shit... i heard someone got done by the cameras twice on the side of the road.. the same one mind you, then parked their car around the corner from the camera car, took off the number plate on the back of it and put it on the back of their own car LOL then drove through the camera over and over again.. if its true its a really good way to say "stick this up your asses"

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
