Saw a cop in an orange asbo pulling over a CTR tonight on the M25

Cheaky buggers.. I bet the CTR saw it and thought he was in for a bit of action - of the wrong kind

They are getting sneaky!

 

what is an asbo?

 

Ford Focus ST. Orange ones being a particular favourite of the harder working boy racer.

 

Thats interesting, I was near Leeds on the A1 Southbound a couple of weeks ago and a blue Focus ST with black windows and black wheels shot past, 5 mins down the road it had pulled over a golf.

 

ha! their new tool of choice! I wonder if they got a group buy

 

yep. sounds like there are loads of them around now. They swapped their volvos from the looks of it..

In Bristol they have a Silver BMW (3 Series I think) estate. Light unit is mounted inside. Seen it pull over 3 cars between Bristol and Bath area.

 

The police usually use confiscated cars for stuff like that...

 

Focus ST's have been about for a while with the county forces ... marked and unmarked.

I don't think they are replacing all the V70's but they are not as popular as they used to be - not 100% sure why though my employers have bought some D5's I believe

 

There are loads of Focus STs used by the bobbyshop across the road from where I work.

It was an unmarked one that gave me my S59 warning earlier in the year (not that they were baiting me, however equally I had done nothing illegal).
