they've used Ford Sierra's and Mondeos I think in the past, probably like someone else said its all BMW's and Audi's now, I don't keep up to date with Police vehicles as we hardly see a cop in my neck of the woods and I don't drive on motorways if I can help it.
Those are some fine automobiles the British police are driving. In the US The Audi S3 starts at around $40,000 and the BMW 5 series are above $50,000 getting into luxury terrority.
In the US most police departments are going for the Chevy Impala which starts at around $27,000 or the Dodge Challenger which starts at around $26,000.
I'd say the British cops are riding in higher style.
Standards are different overseas. The Audi, BMW and Mercedes police cars aren't luxury cars. They're mass market/domesticated. These brands are seen as luxury cars in the US because they're "foreign and unique" in the U.S.
