The unmarked Bike I've seen in Nuneaton, I think was a Honda and more like a light brown metallic than Grey. White cop helmet was a giveaway, all black overalls/suit.
The bike has something like RX on the fairing. My SIL & daughter ( keen bikers ) have their eyes peeled . I've got a lot of unmarked reports recently -area around the council house to Queens road ( on the ring road and in front of the jewellers) is their hunting ground. Not certain of their targets -possibly mobiles/seatbelts

I saw 2 new shape Volvo S60 on the M6 N/B around stafford early this morning on the way to Weston Park show.

Pale green and pale blue, but didn't catch reg's. It looks like they have moved into these from the 5 series BMWs

Not sure if this has been mentioned, but on my travels to Bromsgrove along the M40 I spotted a Grey VW Golf, looks like a GTI model with the twin exhausts in the middle of the car. Pulled someone over, then came flying past me again further up on the M42. Could of easily fooled me. Fortunately I was not in let's get on with it mode.

Snitterfield side roads are also a favourite for hidden cars .

Black Audi A4 (current model) 2.0 TDI Saloon. Seen Sunday - it had pulled a car on the m42 southbound/toll road convergence.

Is it me, or are our boys in blue not playing cricket at the moment.......

There was an unmarked dark blue Focus ST just off the A46 by Leamington today, near the Chesford Grange Hotel. Quite a subtle one, black wheels, tints, you'd think it was just an average modified focus.

Blue 02 plate Ford Focus, complete with scrapes and scratches, spotted on University Boulevard in Nottingham

Really strange to see this type of car as a cop car.

It's just one of the battered old pool cars Polarbert. If you've got a meeting off area or are off to training or something else similar you just grab the keys to one of them to get from a to b. You can't justify taking an operational vehicle out of service to spend all day sat in a car park somewhere.

Most are now slightly newer 3 cyl Fabia's but the odd Fcous is still around as the mileage is so low. Why replace what still works when the cash could be better spent on the operational fleet.
