Saw two unmarked FG F6's on a freeway near Campbelltown yesterday (I was driving to Melbourne using GPS, don't know the name of the freeway). One was dash, it moved off the median and hid in front of a bridge in a roadworks zone, the other one was octane and had someone pulled over down the road a bit more. The octane one looked completely normal on the outside besides the usual aerials and 2 lights mounted either side of the rear number plate. I don't think they are trying to hide them tooooo much.

I wonder if their compliance tags state that they are an Option 20 (Police pack). I'd say these ones would be best left in just out of operation specs with all holes, wiring, other modifications left in place just for that talking point factor.

Some bloke has fitted it out with aerials and lots of lights inside that flash yellow. They say it has personlised plates, such as rohan or royan. So feel free to give it the bird.I.B.I might be off the beaten track here... but I remember seeing these Royen cars around since the early 80's in one form or another (XC, XF, EA, ect.) usually white in Cobra paint scheme...I believe they are Royan transpot Pilot/Escort vehicles for truck break down and repair service. They used to park on the Hume hwy outside the Ford Complex... I always assumed they guide unfamiliar inter-state drivers to their destination Via two way to under take repairs...

trevs Member 781 Member For: 17y 8m 15d Gender: Male Location: balmain Posted 05/04/10 06:55 AM Share Posted 05/04/10 06:55 AM Another great use of taxpayers money.why do the police need fg f6 or hsv holdens anyway besides to waste more tax payers money its really not needed I can understand the need for better brakes so an fg xr6t with bremos should be the most they waste I think and spend the left over money buying general duties officers better cars or put a few more officers on either option is better than wasting it on cars that arent needed cheers trev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So far this weekend traveling to Newcastle and to Wollongong Ive counted 6 police F6s Edited 05/04/10 01:20 PM by tpinto Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
