Motorway Patrol

[Dave VXR8]

On quest at the moment there's a show called Motorway Patrol, features Australia's finest. They are all driving VXR8s or whatever they are called over there. Look rather good with Blues and Twos.

Have watched this a few times, cool cars not so cool police, they are a tad strict out there!

The "waiting for a mate" one still has me in tears!

In case no one has seen it, but don't have a drink in your hand!

yeah ! I too have been watching this prog.

Didn't see this one though. He was a real clever guy , yeah. Problem is he probably is still not bothered and will probably do it again, and again, and again.

The one I got stopped by just outside Melbourne on the Great Ocean Road was a V8

We're a bit more environmentally friendly in WA, think there's a down size exercise in the planning to step down the engine size/power again.

Motorway patrol would be the NZ one, which are mainly SV6's. Highway patrol is the Australian one.
The Victorian ones are V8s. Mainly Holden Commodore SS's. The SSV is the more luxury version which they don't tend to use.
They also like the Ford Falcon XR6 Turbo's.

Friends new toy. VF SSV Manual.
