reg numbers aren't any use,i know for a fact through my mate who works alongside police that each car has 4 sets of number plates

With different registrations on them?

[alanm_3]

So that suggests they have 4 tax discs as well?

P.S.

Welcome Gordy

Stick a wee hello message in the Scotland forum if you fancy, they're friendly enough!

Police vehicles exempt from road tax?

Yeah, they respray them every week too...

That's like the colleague of mine (married to a cop) who insists that many of the 530ds/Focus Diesels actually have M5 and ST engines in them, with the old engines in storage so they can drop them back in for resale.

OK.

Exempt from displaying discs too?

Just had a text from my old man saying a "dark blue unmarked volv 740" is patrolling the a9. I would take the model with a pinch of salt though! Volvo v40 or v70 I guess.

I think the silver A4 is SF12 CEJ. Saw it the other day giving some poor sod a tug. Very easy to miss from the front!

Thats defo the plate. I seen it quite a few times.

Yip that Audi had pulled someone on the M74 this morning.

Strange that - same registration as last time the car was seen???

I've put that one up a couple of pages ago!

I've got visions of James Bond and his revolving number plates!

Maybe they'll fit car to car rockets next! ;-)
