Also, 11 plate Grey BMW 3'saloon outside Vector Aerospace, Gosport also.

A very angry police lady ripping a new one for the tractor driver that held her up massively while she was on blues and twos headded towards Selsey this afternoon (marked Mondeo estate).
The tractor eventually pulled over in the car park of the Anchor pub,she took the time to get out and tell him what for before going on her way.

Just had a scout through some of the recent posts, and it seems that the Skoda Octavia VRS's are still en vogue.
Some posters have seen silver ones, bronze ones and white ones on Motorways, and one poster mentioned a black one in Eastleigh.
Anyway last night I saw a black one too, that had pulled a Merc on the Eastbound M27 near Hedge End.
So - definitely a good idea to give Octy VRS's a second glance, it seems there are quite a few operating.

I was overtaken by the black VRS yesterday around junction 2 M27 as it joined the motorway. It was being driven enthusiastically and as a result it didn't initially occur to me it was BIB. Impossible to tell with it behind you, fortunately I let it past me on the motorway and as it pulled alongside saw all the gubbins on the dash and a single BIB driver. From behind the small white/blue lights on the bumper are some giveaway....

They've started integrating them into the standard rear light units. So have fun spotting them in future. There's a dark silvery-brownish V70 D5 (P3 2009-onward) operating around Poole.
Driving an ex-plod V70 myself, I know where to look for the tell-tail signs of BIB but this one has a full stealth install. All the strobes are in the light clusters, the anpr is integrated in the dash and the cameras are almost unidentifiable. In fact, the only way I knew it was plod was when it fired-up the blues and twos as it came past (I was admiring the car 'cos I'm sad like that).
