I can remember as nippers when we used to play the local police up rotten in the town of an evening and we could always distinguish the Montego police car and the Maestro by the sound of there engines before we could see them,

This gave us an advantage and we used to get a little head start on our heals

that MG montego cop car is brilliant! i would love one!

 

you can tell its the west mids from all the reg numbers, i wonder if any of those cars still exist?

Lots of lovely Jam Sandwiches, much better than those batternbergs they have now. I got nicked by a Granada Scorpio Jam Sandwich on the elevated M6 in 1991. I still don't know how he sneaked up behind me without me noticing.  He did give me some advice though, if I hadn't been out in lane 3 and had not been going over 90mph he would not have nicked me. That would happen now with the vans and cameras, anything over 75mph and you're risking a fixed penalty and some points.

It's a good clip that, the BMW bike engine used to clear the path doesn't last the journey!

Somehow if I was a villain I don't think that being followed by a marina would cause me stop.
