Unmarked Traffic Car

[Richie Cross]

Heading to Greenock this afternoon and saw a black,

unmarked BMW estate that had pulled a car just past the 40mph section.

VRM was SH/SF59 HCK

Come now Richie, you should know that it'll be SF rather than SH I've actually given up telling people about the number of unmarked 5 series there are, basically if you see a 5 series and the reg starts SF then 99% chance it's traffic, in fact 95% that any SF reg belongs to police of some sort (In Glasgow/Strathclyde)

[Richie Cross]

Haha. Do you know, I'd never really thought about it but now that I do..you're right!

I'll never make detective!!!

There are too many to post about I guess but I hadn't seen any round that way for a while and I do think the BMW estate is a good looking car.

yeah most sf are cop cars alot of unmarked shoguns kicking about also. they had a operation going on at tarbet last weekend couple of focus st's and other marked cars sitting catching people.

I know Neil, but reminded me of Richies when I saw it. Black wheels as well.

Even though it has black wheels and tinted windows, the amount of people that hit the anchors when I pull up behind them in the Saab is amazing!

Was it SF something?

One of the ANPR team's Mountune ST's.

Nice.

Spotted these a few months ago, luckily I was in a 311 Merc Sprinter so couldnt speed even if I wanted too!

They do look cool as ****

Another couple for ya, purple Mazda 6 sport, silver 5 series, and a champagne coloured 5 series which some folks probably have seen already that ones got a right wet spot for just pulling at random

Yup, that's the one, usually when you see something special traffic cop wise, the reg is random, like MX etc cos they're demonstrators
