Default Unmarked Police Cars.

If your breaking the law and get caught then more fool you but if your breaking the law and get caught by an unmarked car then you always feel that little bit more silly.

I just did a search and couldnt find a similar thred so I thought it may be helpful to those who use the roads often to know what to keep an eye out for in your area.
If you have more information about any perticular constabulary transport feel free to add it.

Location: West Yorkshire
Hot Spots: M62 between Jct 27 and 25 and surrounding A roads.
Colour: Navy Blue and another one in Silver
Make: Volvo
Model: T5 Estate.
Give Aways: White Strobes just below the lights on both front and rear bumpers.

Mods if this is naughty, feel free to remove Cheers.

I've seen quite a few unmarked bobbies about the country.

On more than one occation they were in a dark grey BMW saloon. Think it was an M3 but may be wrong, definately a rapid looking BMW though.

You would be better putting this in the relevant regional area imo.

I know of a few round North Yorkshire ...

I've seen a 2003 Vauxhall Vectra silver with blues n twos on which i thought was way too old to still be in the force. I saw a blue Focus ST pull someone on the motorway. It's kinda hard to tell.

Generally keep an eye out for a 2nd rear view mirror, extra aerials and secondary lights, normally on the front bumpers and behind the grille.

Peterborough

Black/navy blue BMW 3 series.
Looks like your usual base model BMW 3 series but the fuzz have put an M3 engine in there.

Sivler Skoda/Volkswagen estate

Sorry I can't give anymore info on the latter.
