Southbound on the A34 this afternoon and a white BMW estate with headlights on came steaming up behind me in lane 2, big blue badge on bonnet, driver in white shirt, light bar on roof and three aerials, battenberg on the wings and an amount of kit in the back. Driver then starts using a handheld walkie style radio.
I could not go anywhere because of the traffic and sat and waited for the blue lights, in the meantime I spotted rectangular lights behind the grill too, chap is trying to 'dominate' the road and is too close for comfort, eventually I was able to move over only for him to pass as fast as he could and sit up someone elses backside.
As soon as he was past I could see it had warning stripes on the back and more battenberg on the rear wings... and some stickerage saying it was Motorola!

Really could not have made more of an effort to try and fool people, the guy then sat VERY close up someones backside travelling down an A road with two wheels on the central white lines to intimidate the poor driver in front.

I'm sure someone will tell me this is perfectly acceptable because of micro-detail a,b,c but it really wound me up.

Anyone else seen these Motorola vehicles?

So the big Motorola branding on the bonnet didn't do it for you?

Ha ha smile No more than the BMW branding on the car!

I know what you mean but when there is stuff like this going on ASBO police having one extra sticker viewed from a low angle in a rear view mirror means the car says 'police' way more than 'embittered Deputy Marketing Assistant for Motorola'.
