stupid cops. wasting taxpayers money like that!

i read an article about the lotus, and apparently its purpose is to improve relations with young drivers by creating a conversation point hahah!

i think most skyline drivers would rather talk about their own cars...

when are they going to realise that the only time people speak to police officers is when theyve been pulled over, or are the victim of a crime etc? people are never going to be HAPPY to speak to police!

court case on friday! cant wait!

More like stupid idiots like you that have NFI what you're on about!!!

The cars are GIVEN to the police. They are used for high visibility and PR gatherings.

I hope you lose on Friday!

I really don't think stations would be able to afford cars like these.

I know a couple of them have bought bikes for easy access but I have never heard of them buying cars like the lotus. I wouldn't think they would have the budget for it.

I'm fairly certain that the state government paid for the rental of the Lotus...

The Lotus Exige was LOANED to the NSW Police by Lotus Cars Australia - refer to an article in Motor Magazine earlier this year

Down in the shire..

once saw a green Jimny Soft top at cronulla with police livery and once i saw a white Toyota Avensis Verso pull someone over. You will find that City police stations will use cars like the Punto and other small cars as it will be more economical and better for commuting and easier to park than Commos and Falcons.

also have heard rumours that blue mountains police had a Ferrari 360 or 355 a while back

undercover anti street drifting cop car flanked on sides by TMU. watch out for this car, they use it to infiltrate street drifts then swoop in with the others. if you see the driver, give him the finger, swear at him and punch him on the cock.

true story.

      I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.

      By Matt Z · Posted

      Our Southern Highlands Cruise is proudly registered with “R U OK?” Day.  Sometimes the best way to check in on your mates is by getting out for a drive together. Sharing a common passion like cars creates the perfect space to chat, connect, and support each other.  A simple “R U OK?” can make all the difference. Let's enjoy the drive, the company, and look out for one another. PLEASE WEAR YELLOW FOR “R U OK?” DAY Sunday 14th September 2025 9:30AM Meeting Crossroads Homemaker Centre 10:00AM Cruise Departure Via Old Hume Hwy 11:45AM Arrival at Mittagong RSL Club Meet Location: Crossroads Homemaker Centre Final Destination: Mittagong RSL Club *Disclaimer* There will be a lead and follow car so no one should get lost. If you would like to attend or bring others along please put your name down and a +1 as numbers will be needed prior! This is NOT a race and we will all be adhering to all road rules. If this is what you want please come to one of our many track days. This is an official SAU:NSW event and will be run under a CAMS permit. One of the things that really sets our club apart is our commitment to being true enthusiasts. When on normal roads we strive to maintain good relations with the authorities as well as the public in general.
