Had enough of it now, just had 3 hours ripping out mods and wiring.

The screwdrivers are retired.

Ouch least you won't need to do much to the St....for a few days

Going to change the indicator bulbs to silvatec type to de-tango and probably add smoked mirror indicator lenses and that will be it.

Will need a new dog grille and boot liner but job is sourcing them for me.

Ah very good, have you got one of those metal bars that you plug into the tail gate and the locking part so that you can sort of lock the boot slightly open for air? I need to get one of those and those grills for the windows..

Haven't got a bar, dogs are usually only in the car for 30 minutes tops going to/from work unless I take them on the moors.

The only vehicle they are in for long periods is the works ST and then they have their own aircon unit monitored by a digital temperature screen on the dash.

Your doggy passengers get better travel arrangements than most human passengers lol

The rules for carriage and care of Police dogs is very strict now due to that case in 2011 when two dogs died in Notts.

The regs we have to abide by now are very specific.

rightly so :)

Another reason I'd love to get a van, leaves a bit more space for doggy to stay out the heat..

As promised, first pictures on collection.

More will follow when it's dryer.

Drool... Give us a go :)

Oi, I'm first ;)

Car looks stunning.

Well happy with it.

Goes like a stabbed rat.

It's more nimble than the patrol car as it hasn't got all the extra kit fitted to it and I reckon a bit faster too.

I will take some more (blur free) piccies when I get a chance.

If I were to give test drives to everyone who's asked so far I'd be getting to drive it myself about mid june :d

My birthday is on the 18th June so you can have it back by the 19th. :D

It's a jekyll and hyde.

Refined and quiet around town and a neck cracker on fast roads. ,)
