Aberdeen. Police LR Discovery.

[MGZRod]

Was just behind one on broad street. Never seen one around here before!

Looked awesome not one for chasing folk down I imagine!

Saw that the other day!

On the topic about the police, there was a bike sitting prowling at the roundabout at the AECC earlier...

I was driving home from Aboyne to Torphins on Friday, at about 9/10pm, when I car overtook me on the Dess straight. Good time for the police to be sitting waiting, so I wasn't in any rush. Right enough, just as the other car was level with me, our lights lit up the side of... a marked-up long wheelbase Defender!? It pulled out behind and was up my tail by the time I came into Kincardie O'Neil. Driving through the village you could see the other car pulling into a drive and it looked like the Landy was stoping there...

It might just have been funny timing, but it certainly looked like he was going after the other car (not that it was going that fast), but why would you go after speeders in a Defender...? Is this the safest (and easiest) way of doing it?

I've had the pleasure of meeting the occupants of said Defender

I beleive that the Police occupants of Land Rover Discoveries patroling Aberdeen and Grampian 24/7 are armed response units ..
