The Met were lent a Lambo Gallardo in September 2005 to mock up and use to draw attention to their road safety campaign on their stand at the Regent Street festival. That may be what you remember seeing as the story was in most of the papers at the time.

A friend of mine is doing the Gumball next year as a passenger - his mate is entering in his Maserati (its costing £40k for him to do it apparently.....gulp!!!) and my friend is paying around £4k to be his passenger. Insanity!!!! |

With police cars like that it is good to see that the police have maintained their efforts to remove wrong doing from society by catching motorists oh yes and escaping thieves! However it does explain the very high tax bill I had last year and leaves me pondering the question whether that makes me a part owner. If I am, I want a drive!
