Rep Power: 3  | V8 Cops cars I heard a rumour a while back that the police had decided against using V8`s as pursuit cars. I mean I havent seen any for years. yet reading this article I guess that this rumour was false. Apparently the police are stepping it up in at least NT and QLD with new FPV Typhoons in QLD and VE SS in NT. http://www.caradvice.com.au/category...-ve-commodore/ Is there really much point though since from what I`ve heard they arent allowed to do over 140-160 in a chase.. Could be a good recruitment point, "Become a cop and cruise in style"... |

Rep Power: 10 | Re: V8 Cops cars The Typhoons have been on the road in QLD for 6 months now. They've been stationed here a few times. Stick out like dogs balls! A lot of XR6T's up in NT as well. Cheers |

Rep Power: 4 | Re: V8 Cops cars most of the unmaked cars in the ACT are xr6t's, and from what i understand its because of the pick up they have.
