Umm..not too keen on the motorhome one!!......though does look pretty smart.

[dougie]

one orange and a camper!!! at least the boy racers havent started on them!!!!!

[straceyann]

lovely colour, reaaly striking,

but after being driven in a police vehicle, nothing would make me buy one,those things get driven 24/7 like boy racers sometimesadmitidly for very good reason..but still thrashed by the time they leave service.

Since you work at a police station then you should also know that their vehicles are maintained to a very high standard exceeding the manufacturers maintenance schedule and normally all documentation accompany the vehicle when sold................................and i would not hesitate in buying one if it was relatively cheap.

Well maintained......but still thrashed to hell !

[mumof4]

Ah but so could any car you buy...

Exactly, at least the vehicles in the emergency services are serviced and maintained regardless of cost.....just imagine, a police car on a pursuit but has to back down because the exhaust fell off due to rust or the car kept on pulling to the left on heavy breaking (like some cases here on this forum!) Or the ambulance that couldn't respond to an emergency call because it kept cutting out.

 

Now, you will be wondering after reading the next few lines and saying 'Christ, has this person not done any kind of job' Well, amongst my various job, i was a qualified ambulance paramedic for 7 years and i can vouch that the vehicles were kept to a meticulous and stringent schedule and we had the powers to put 'VOR - vehicle of-road' for whatever reason no matter how small or petty the reason being and not get questioned 'why' after.... and get it back fixed using genuine parts. Oh by the way, i wouldn't say they were 'thrashed' but driven to 'optimum perfomance - both vehicle and driver'.

True but when you buy any other car you hope it hasn't been flogged.

 

When you buy an ex-police one.....you know it definitely has been flogged !

Regardless of cost ?......I think not.....when it becomes uneconomical they will cut their losses and sell it !

 

Kept cutting out ?.....If the engine is knackered it may be more economical to cut your losses and sell it.

 

And also it appears to have dodgy plates on it ..... :blink:

Well when i was in the service, vehicles were kept for a minimum of 6 years and not once had i came across a vehicle that had to have its engine changed and believe me, anything that was needing done got done. Understandably things have changed since then, now they are not tied down in buying 'British Made' as was back then and its all money-orientated nowadays.

I think the orange looks crap.

On a Focus ST maybe but not a bus :blink:

[big_kev]

Nice gal....dodgy engine but worth it for the parts..
