Golf r traffic branch.

[zafturbo]

Definitely wasn't expecting seeing that the golf r that I was admiring on the motorway towards lurgan there now was actually a officer of the law.was wondering when they would get them as patrol vehicles.They have likely been around for ages but it's the first one I have seen them in.Very discreet in red as it just looks like every other golf .I still want one though .

 

[roverspeed]

There is navy blue golf r too

Sneaky buggers

 

[zafturbo]

I hope he guy in the bmw they had pulled in didn't try and race them.

 

[KyleR]

Seen that red one in the BP before with a pair of female officers stocking up on crisps and chocolate for a long night lol

 

[jimcupra]

No money to fight real crime but there is plenty there to catch those master criminals the motorist

They would have got them on a killer lease deal so win win for the tax payer.

No but a top of the range golf, I know they don't pay full price but that's taking the p1ss.
Having said that wouldn't mind being the plod that earned 44000 in overtime last year

Stole off Bakebook

They'd do well on that stretch of M1 in the mornings as the standard of driving is crap.

Wish they'd target the people who love sitting in the overtaking lane for their entire journey and not just speeding offences.

 

[mckeown]

cant wait to but one at the auction in six-eight years time

I'd love to have earnt that as a basic wage never mind O/T. . .

 

[Simon998]

Speaking of which, whens the recruitment for the PSNI open usually? I thought it was usually around August?

There's no cash in that, so why would they bother

The dodgy dealers and clocker brigade will be all over them. 2 days after the auction you'll see them on Gumtree with a few thou shaved off the odometer.

At that police twitter event thing they said possibly October, depends on budgets

Probably leased it on the cheap.

 

[jimcupra]

I spotted it on the BBC website fair play to him or her. In the good old days 20 years ago I could lift 600 a week. Granted that was 7 days but well worth it. Spent it wisely

It always makes me laugh when I see sensational headlines about people getting paid a lot of overtime. I imagine most of them get paid an hourly rate and therefore have to spend a horrendous amount of time away from their families/ friends and are working every hour of the day to earn that sort of money. Never any suggestion of fraudulent overtime claims etc. maybe the headlines should read employees work every hour God sends to earn extra cash?!

@stevieturbo must be sleeping. lol

Don't mention the £95k armoured insignia diesels

 

[s3_trev]

Ive saw the navy one in Portrush but I heard it was from Carrickfergus. Have never seen the red one.

 

[therock]

There's one about Belfast too

And it's not mine
