Was surprised to spot a black Mercedes saloon at the angel of the north this morning, having stopped someone.
Might have been a new e class, reg LL59xxx
Not a bmw 3 series? Durham have one and thats just outside their area. To my knowledge Northumbria police do not use any merc'sMight have been a new e class, reg LL59xxx

Was so far removed from my usual "is that an undercover police car" radar that I thought I'd add it to this thread.

Surprised to see the black 56 plate Octavia VRS on the a19 in Stockton a couple of days ago, that must be a big leggy now.
One of the blue Octavias, NX58-something, was busy nicking someone on the M27 a few weeks ago.. yes, the M27 in Hampshire, 300 miles away. I wouldn't have given it a thought apart from the reg. plate. I also once saw the same car doing warp speed up the A1 in Lincs. late one night but ignoring other cars doing similar speeds; maybe it gets shuttled around different forces and was off-duty at the time (or was on a drug-dealer intercept mission)...Wedg1e said:

I am 99.9 % certain it would not have been the same car, unless of course you can confirm it was the same full reg? Police vehicles tend to be supplied in batches and the prefix on the plate isnt normally the local one. Therefore theres probably skoda police cars all over the country with the NX58 prefix.
Its a Hampshire Police car, all of their unmarked ones have "foreign" plates, or so I'm told.There is a blue one kicking about up here, along with a couple of black ones and a red...
I think this was mentioned somewhere else in this thread but twice today i,ve seen a black evoque bombing up and down the A19 near Thirsk with blue lights going, i dont mean a noddy light on the roof it was the full monty, front grill, flashing headlights, rear strobes, looked very odd

Champagne gold Freelander and black RR, both with very dark tinted windows, in convoy, both on blues, no sirens flying down Yarm High Street about 10.30am.
