Our good friends at NW 4x4 Response.
Dirty old Freelander with Walt spec stickers across the rear.
What caught my eye today was the fact the driver swerved across all 3 lanes to get on the hard shoulder and the blue flashing strobes on the roof, definitely not legal.
If you've got dashcam footage of the blues, send to your local plod. Traffic will be particularly interested. They are already pinging some radars.Dirty old Freelander with Walt spec stickers across the rear.

Another person who thinks it's ok to copy DoT battenburg! 
It's cheap 'innit. You only batten the yellow parts and leave the black paint on show. Probably an urban legend.

... a dozen Morris Minors, half of them pale blue and the other half in white then unbolt and swap various body panels for a peasant spec battenburg effect...
My local Army base has two 'range security' Hiluxes. One is red with yellow doors and bonnet, the other is yellow with red doors and bonnet.

I read somewhere that back in the 50's or 60's police forces would buy a dozen Morris Minors, half of them pale blue and the other half in white then unbolt and swap various body panels for a peasant spec battenburg effect.
Probably an urban legend.
Panda cars were pale blue and white, it makes much more sense to swop doors/bonnet/boot than respray them all.Probably an urban legend.
They'd have to swop the ignition lock as well though

(What's that whooshing squawking noise I hear...)
I have to say even even though that diving bloke is an expert in his field, it just shows how a little bit of power makes you sound like a proper idiot.
Saying she wasn't in the river then saying they couldn't scan the reeds, really smacks of he should just have kept his mouth shut in the first place, but his ego got the better of him, which is common thing with these types of people.
I hope, even though he does a lot of good, he reflects of the pain, suffering and speculation he directly caused.

Very much doubt it, these types don't but I'm sure his business will suffer a bit from the backlash.Saying she wasn't in the river then saying they couldn't scan the reeds, really smacks of he should just have kept his mouth shut in the first place, but his ego got the better of him, which is common thing with these types of people.

It wasn't he couldn't scan the reeds but said he wasn't tasked to therefore trying to deflect it away from his own failure.

Probably with rootes (sic) in the story of "Pinky and Perky", two Hillman Imps bought by Dunbartonshire Police in 1967. One blue, one white....Probably an urban legend.
