went past it yesterday quickish (luckily sub 100) and it followed for a while. Dark blue new Volvo, cannot remember the model but the saloon with the new shape rear lights (anyone want to confirm the model?) Later down the M27 it pulled an old volvo estate that was loaded up with crap and looked like it was going to fall apart. Thankfully I didnt get a tug.

That car appears on Men and Motors for the series following the Hampshire traffic police. I think it is on tonight at 9pm or so.

ooops, appears I was the only one that didnt know about it

Thankfully I didnt get a tug. All wired up for gatsos, truvelos, mobile lasers, this would be my luck that I got a ban by passing an unmarked car....

Steady on Phil, you'll have Gary (SC) after you for quoting the reg. numbers of unmarked cars.

Well done though!

Best wishes all,
Dave.

To add to the list, just seen a white 5 series Touring go shooting up to the M275 out of Portsmouth, could be CID though .

Tell me about it! there's got to be a way of detecting an unmarked police car hasn't there? Maybe we could put coloured stickers on the bumpers when we spot one?

Plain? Nah...It's very quick, it handles well..(better than V70, even though there is some torque steer at times)...and it's comfortable...mmm

The skoda spotted again today, deffo brand new almost a black dark blue with a reg something like GN-**-P**, for reasons of my own clean license I post the full reg .
Must learn to recognise Skodas in the mirror after years being atuned to looking out for Omeaga/BMWs/Volvos
You have been warned .

oh, and spotted the Octavia with the blues and twos going on the hard shoulder of the M27 the other day as well. They seem to have taken delivery of a few toys at once.

Of course, if Mungo was a real PHer he'd mail all of us the reg plates
