if the car was genuine ex plod, surely this is better as the service and tuning regime is second to none?? why not just say its ex plod and has been maintained to the highest police standard although no service history is available?

surely the police wouldn't clock thier cars??

if its from a film set then you could argue that it has also been kept in top mechanical order???

Just ask a certain H21 how cherished a plod car is in normal day to day use though!  :-?  :-?
Not very .........  :y  :y

My local dealer says plod get through dual mass flywheels in Vectras for fun ...... shows how sympathetic they are when they let the clutch up.  :-?

In my humble opinion an engine that is as dirty as this:


has done well over 62,000 miles, has not been well looked after and has certainly never been maintained by the police. ::) ::) ::) ::) ::) ::)  

I wouldn't touch this car myself ;) ;)

There are too many better buys out there to go for! :D :D ;)

If it's not a genuine ex-plod car then how come the speedo has been calibrated? Or is this a speedo from an ex-plod car, transplanted into this one?

Either way, sounds a bit fishy to me.

well guess what i got a reply from the gent

he speedo has not been changed, this is exactly as it was when I bought her 8 months ago - yes, she's ex-police (only the police had MV6 cars)and I've fitted the stereo myself and replaced the dash with the wood effect as the original had holes (plus I liked the wood effect replacement) - as I used her for my job, I wasn't bothered about it being ex-police as I utilised all the holes to ad my own Amber lightbar and Amber bumber lights - since removing the roof bar, I have plugged the holes myself - hope that helps
