OK, well, who could object to this?
Maybe 'Don't try and run, you'll just die tired'..?
Of course you have, dear. Did you ever think of maybe replying 'If you can't speak up for yourself in public, and the colour scheme on a police car upsets you so, maybe policing isn't for you, sweetie'?

ReplyDeleteClassic Jensen's would be great fun if a little impractical. A bit thirsty and not too reliable.
ReplyDeleteThere you go.

"OK, well, who could object to this?"...put me down for a Me Too, JuliaM.
ReplyDeleteOK, I'm biased. Any nauseating appearance of 'Police Interceptors' will trigger a reflex snatch at the remote and in less time it takes when the screen displays an image of James Corden, another equally detestable and unfunny, fat bastard.
Paint for all plod cars should be both economical and appropriate for the occupants. Unless there is a colour to denote stupidity, options should be limited to insane red, rose pink or plain yellow.
One of the comments mentioned Mad Max, it would seem that plod procurement have got them "just in time". Bravo!
ReplyDeleteStonyground, when I was fourteen I carried at the local food course. One day a member pulled up outside the pro shop where us loads waited for a job. The man tossed he keys at me, told me to park his Jensen. I think it would be correct to say that the world fell out of my bottom.
ReplyDeleteOh, nice new very fast cars bought with money they don't have just so they can rush round the country side trying to impress someone. /sarc
ReplyDeleteThere is no need for the re-branding, which presumably cost as much as the cars, it just looks stupid.
The job of the police is to Prevent crime, not turn up after it is all over which means they have to get out of the cars and patrol on foot like they did in the 50s and 60s. Doing that might slim down some of them.
Don't worry folks those of us who live outside the Westminster bubble or heaven forbid in more ordinary places will never see these cars. They are to impress and comfort the rich not to protect us plebs.
ReplyDeleteIf they have to have fast cars, why not give them a real name, such as
ReplyDelete"Shithead
Destroyer".
Should the words on the front not be in mirror writing?
ReplyDeleteThe front looks vaguely Joker smiley.
And what about our tax-money being spent on cars build in other countries? There are perfectly suitable cars produced in Britain, maintaining British jobs for British workers.
ReplyDeleteCheck any news footage of events in France - all their 'official' vehicles are build by Peugeot/Citroen or Renault. Check Germany, theirs are all from VW/BMW/Mercedes. Check Italy, they only ever buy Fiat products. Remarkably, despite the EU procurement rules, their native companies always seems to win those 'open tenders'. Spooky that.
And yet we're leaving the corrupt EU, but our state buyers are still sending our hard-earned money to all those crooks. Time for a UK-only rule.

ReplyDeleteTheir spines are missing in action too...
"There you go"
Beautiful!
"Paint for all plod cars should be both economical and appropriate for the occupants."
This is exactly that.
"The job of the police is to Prevent crime, not turn up after it is all over ..."
And what better way to do that than in visible expressions of their ability to do so?
"And what about our tax-money being spent on cars build in other countries?"
I'm not sure there's anything stopping a British firm applying for the contract, is there?
