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.

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"

    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
