Crime gang's Audi 4x4 now police patrol car

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/scotland/gla ... 555079.stm

"The black Q7 was seized by officers from Strathclyde police during an operation against a criminal gang in the north of the city.

The 4x4 car has now been emblazoned with the force's livery and will be used by the Gangs Task Force."

I like it! Especially if it is actually involved in the arrest of some more crims.

I think it's a brilliant idea, but is it legal. :roll:

Excellent isn't it. :thumbright:

They took it of a well known crime family up here. As you said Dave. Can you imagine them arresting some of these people using one of there previously owned cars.

Does that mean that if you're caught driving at 38 MPH in a 30 MPH area the police can snatch your car?
