Seen in Huddersfield 13thDecember near Wakefield Road, driver has no hi vis but the car is full with camera gear
Extremely hi tech stuff inside, very little externally to arouse I AM PLOD. Double wing mirrors and that's about it.

You have been warned, a black Volvo with this reg up your arse and you are nicked judge

Was just about to post the same, as an ex Volvo worker.

No rails, Extra wing mirror on the nearside and very discreet lights in either bumper or just inside the rear window.

I think this V70 is based at the station near me, there is also a Silvery one, same details, also on a '10 plate.

ETA: Most plod V70's seem to have the fold down metal divider for the load area too, maybe folded up on this one?

5 minutes after passing my bike test I was sideswiped by a Volvo driver; I was OK but bike was a right off. His fault thankfully cos I'd already sold the bike to my mate!! Telling him I'd passed my test but that his bike was dead was not funny at the time!
