You can ignore the Mini, it won't be interested in any traffic related stuff and if you copped the index, please keep it to yourself although if it's been on blues, I doubt it'll use those plates again

The X5 is the 4.0 version and is apparently quite nice to drive (still waiting for my turn)

5er, under orange street lamps so couldn't pick the colour, but it was a lighter colour, OV61***

40d is still 3.0, but yes - faster!

Anyone in the two cars heading into Guildford down the A31 past the Farnham Road Hospital? 2x unmarked BMWs (one light, one dark), all seemed full?

Silver unmarked 3 series touring with blues on this morning approx 9.30
At the B3000 jct/ Puttenhan Heath. Flashed you thorough on the roundabout.
I was in a silver insignia

I saw them too, heading out of Guildford down the A281. Not Surrey cars (that I'm aware of) like you said four up all in plain clothes?!?

Yes, that's them. Some 'interesting' driving over that mini roundabout towards the town centre....

Must have been why the rear passengers were holding onto the FM handles!!!!

They are 330d's and they shift!!! (even with the ton of kit in the back!)

I was watching an 'up north' police programme the other day and one of the forces actually had a 335d touring which surprised me.

Humberside I think. I've been advised by someone who knows more about BMW's than me, that there isn't that much difference between the engine of the new 335 and the 330 that a map wouldn't sort out

Seems a bit odd to be a coincedence but I possibly saw them on the A272 at Petersfield at about midday.

Not a lot then

As if the police cars aren't chipped/played with? (I always thought they were?)
