Unmarked cars on A1

[Rob_F]

Saw 2 unmarked cars + I think a third about 10 miles south of the Angel yesterday. 1 was a fairly new looking Grey Leon (old shape) Cupra or Cupra R, the other a Dark (think black but not sure) Volvo V40. Also in tow was a black Astra 5 door SRI who was either also unmarked or just having a laugh keeping up!

Felt obliged to let you fellas know just in case you see one about.

Cheers,
Rob.

This one tailed me a while back hoping for an easy catch. His two blue grill lights gave him away. A prat overtook us doing a ton plus so the Volvo gave chase. Didn't see them pulled over though.

Around the A1 in Blaydon - Ryton, theres a sky bluey grey, new shape focus hire car that their using and a friend from work said a similar black one has pulled a car over by Newburn bridge. Sometimes their quite easy to spot form the various aerials on the roof and back windows.

Tricky barstewards up near Morpeth are using an unmarked 3 series BMW Coupe - WHITE with tinted windows!!

easy way of spotting, alllll the unmarked cars have lights in the front grills or at least all the ones ive seen, if somethings in me rear close enough to see what im listening to i always check the grill, just a tip dudes

Shame it's entirely incorrect/inaccurate.

I heard the bog-standard looking Astras & Focuses (Focii?) they use actually have a Saturn V rocket engine under the bonnet.
I also heard all Coppers are paid a hundred and twelvety thousand pounds a week and most of them are called Clive.

I may also be talking utter rubbish, a bit like yourself.
