What's your standard patrol car? I think here (Victoria) the standard is usually a slightly modified Holden SS Commodore, though we do get the odd promo car...

I don't this Viper ever made it onto patrol duties...

Volvo V70 traffic car

Mondeo

Astra panda car

Amongst others like the Omega, Vectra, Ford Focus and various vans

I'm a bit of a police car fetishist, for some reason i'm drawn to the old Rover P6

After 12 years, it wears off real quick (driven many, crashes=1, cyclist=1 (car thief), motorcyclist=1 (pursuit).

The Vectra 3.2s are currently being replaced with 2.8Ts.

Up here we have the Volvo T5's, saloon and estate (Traffic patrol)

and F**d focus' as Panda cars, though as of late I've seen a couple of Scoda Octavia VRs kicking about, but I think they were on prison transfers from Middlesborough

Your right Kev, we have octavia's in silver for ANPR work and did have in livery.
As for other motors we're doing ok,main cars are the ST220 Estate,and Volvo's,with a Merc S Class thrown in for good measure.
We have a road traffic site that well documents staff and vehicles in a pictorial fashion past and present but it's tucked away on the force intranet,and maintained by force enthusiasts.
However there is an unofficial site on the net that shows our vehicles,past and present.

Also we have released a set of present day vehicle pin badges with proceeds going to the Great North Air Ambulance.
So your purchases are welcome!!!!!
