I think maybe there running out, especialy since most of there unmarked cars now seem to be very white and boring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZAP No boost, no bottle, just my foot on the throttle! Lifetime Members 7,935 Member For: 20y 9m 11d Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 26/01/07 11:09 AM Share Posted 26/01/07 11:09 AM Yes it's legal for anyone with P's -> full license to drive displaying P plates.The police would be using this to entice people for a run as "no cop car would have P plates" untill they are pulled over.There are also no entrapment laws in Oz.If you had an unmarked pull up beside you at lights and reved their engine and asked if you wanna race, I am sure they would get in trouble, especially if you got it on video.
