Ive seen a lovely gray(ey)/silver TVR quite a few times in Worthing (i'm ashamed to say im not sure what type though) driven by a rather tasty lady.

The number plate (very nearly) reads Pink if thats any help in identifying if she is a Phr or not.

Heads up.

Bright silver 3 Series BMW saloon on the A23. He had just nabbed someone southbound and still had his blue front grill lights on.

It'll be a GV I suspect - the unmarked 335i is a GV also.

GV is the code for somewhere down here - my wifes 07 Polo begins GV

I knew it finished in an X (oops, did it wrong again dad winkhehe) although I wonder if there's 2 of them? scratchchin

Whilst Im here, for those who use the lower part of the A23.... the other night on my way home, just at dusk, I noticed a sneaky BiB had parked the silver BMW on the local traffic/footbridge at Pyecombe (the first one you come to northbound) and was out the car using a handheld speed trap. He thought I didnt see him wink

Busy boys this morning. 1 unmarked car, 1 Volvo marked car and 1 marked motorbike had pulled over a car each in Patcham. About 700 yards covering all 3 stops. Wonder if they'd been driving each other?

ETA: Just to keep it on topic, the unmarked car was the silver C Class saloon (thought to be a debadged AMG) GX54 ***

Tricky to spot too. Small lights in the grille, usual rubbish up round the mirror.

The only unmarked silver C class saloon I'm aware of is a C320. Where did you hear about an AMG?

A 'source' has told me it is an AMG too.

Current plain traffic cars are
1) Chichester, Silver Merc C320 Estate
2) Hove, Silver Merc C320 Saloon
3) Haywards Heath, Silver BMW 335i Saloon
4) Polegate, Silver BMW 530d Estate
5) Fleet spare is a White Merc C270cdi estate

Also still doing the rounds on ANPR duties are
Black Audi A6 3.0 TDI quattro saloon
Silver Ford Focus ST Hatch
Navy Vauxhall Omega 3.2 Saloon ( Still ! )

The evo's were sold to south yorkshire last year and there are no AMG's on the fleet.
I note the german theme here. Fith gear did an article on how the traffic BiBs have progressed from BL Maxis to Rovers and now on to german prestige cars. Astons and rollas to follow?
