The ugliest but I think fastest vehicle the TTPS ever had was the Ford Taurus.

They weren't Jeep Grand Cherokees. They were Jeep Cherokees. The two are different.

Police wrote off one the very first day they were delivered, 60-80km/h round corners is slow for them.

I'm sure someone will call BS on this....but I could have sworn seeing a pic....YEARS ago....when Diamond brought down a couple of Evo's new......the police got an Evo 7 for "traffic" duty.

If so....wonder how long before it was crashed?

Again, I could be wrong.....so.......

The Holden Commodore is a GM vehicle, closely related... The Pontiac G8 was based on it...

If there ever happens to be a local dealer, it will be Lifestyle Motors who has the dealership for Chevy...

Think of those Holden as the new Kingswood... ie. You don't want to get rammed by one.

Nah never had an evo 7.

All police vehicles are bought in batches from the firm, if there is one there will be more.

the mitsubishi lancer they have also the 1.8 model
they have also the landcruiser with the V8 gas engine...
