Golf R32 police car - Warwickshire section of M40

Post by neckarsulm » Sat May 23, 2009 7:38 am

Heard that this car existed from a local policeman and it was spotted on the M40 recently having pulled over a Saxo.
Mk5 R32, black, 5 door.
Likeliest section to see it on are Gaydon to Stratford sections J13-15 and the local roads.

I was going a little fast, 90 on the A46 at 3amish the R32 came up behind me with its full beams on (ANPR check?), I slowed down and when it passed flashed at them. Sirens came on for 6 secs as if to say 'oh feck off' at which point I thought SH*T but they didn't stop me! Needless to say I slowed to 65-70 :oops:
Also spotted last night pulling a rover( i think) over in Leamington town centre..

Seen it a few times in the Leamington area, it seems to be based with a few other unmarked cars as well as normal traffic cars, on the A452 Europa Way just off the roundabout that goes to M40 J14....

I have it on good authority it was involved in an accident near Stratford when the driver decided to do a U turn on a bend on a main road and someone piled into the side of it (imagine what the side of a black car looks like on an unlit road).
It's been rebuilt since but needed a few panels.

I saw the guys in the 5 series at Audi when dropping my S8 in for some work and they were looking around a C6 S6, the sales guy was saying to them 'its a 4.2 V8' Not sure if they brought it or not!
Also there is an Avensis, really old one. Silver Vectra Y reg.
