Default White Transit!

Yesterday i sore a dirty old transit with its sirens going! The blokes inside looked like unshaven builders too, like a bit grubby looking to match the van. This must have been a deeeeep undercover mission. lol. Have seen a few unmarked police vehicles but they have never been dirty !

Ever seen this before?

It's funny you should mention this...

I was travelling up to Essex on Monday and coming down the A3 there was a white transit van with blues going, flying down the outside lane

Doughnut delivery perhaps?

I used to know someone in a clapped out old Astra but had put his alarm sound on a switch next to the drivers wheel.

He used to flick his alarm on which actually sounded like a police car to unsuspecting motorists who would then pull over and he'd just drive on by.

He was such a duche.

Deep undercover and sirens don't normally mix..... Unmarked tatty old vans are either Obs platforms or forward strike points, either way they don't go anywhere quickly.

There was some muppet up my way who drove a balck range rover and decided to fit little blue flashers behind his front grill and under the front bumper. He was going about pulling easter european looking folks, telling em they broke a traffic law and taking fines off em.
Then one day he pulled over a right dodgy looking old banger with a couple of scruffy looking types in it only to discover they were undecover cops and they promtly arrested him, lol.
