Why has it no amber beacon?

Looks like the beacon we've on some OMAC jeeps. There is blues built into the sides of it, I'd imagine there is ambers on the airports one, they know what they're doing ...

That Pajero looks like a fine piece of kit.

Always good to see something new being tried out - and the silver looks well with the Battenberg.

Hope it does the business for the airport police

Met Police have been using them for years.

Later, the Department of Justice said that all the new Ford and Hyundai cars being bought for the Garda fleet would either be saloon or estate vehicles

Does this rule out Santa Feis or is it confused journalism?

I would imagine Garda management would opt for Toyota Landcruiser or Isuzu D-Max, possible even Kia Sorento if a need for 4x4 vehicles in the fleet arose as they have done in the past.

Couldn't rule out the Mitsubishi Pajero? Better suited than the Hyundai or Kia, and up there with the Isuzu - although it's a pick-up. Land Cruiser still tops for me though.

Gang takes powerful €135,000 BMW at gunpoint

Officers fear that the stolen BMW five-series car will be used by a gang in serious crime.

The description of the M5 model, which sells at up to €135,000 for new vehicles, has been circulated to all garda districts nationwide.

ASU will have no problem keeping up. It does 135mph in a straight line and if thats not fast enough they just have to climb to keep it in view.

No doubt it'll be used for jobs at some stage soon though

The m5 has 500hp. I'd guess the xc70 has 250-300 at most.

E90 BMW M5s are electronically limited to 155mph. That electronic limiter can be removed with a very simple electronic rewriting of the cars ECU (BMW dealerships offer this service to their customers, as do most good independent BMW specialists). The theoretical top speed then exceeds 185mph.

For obvious reasons I won't get into what can / cannot keep up with a 155 mph vehicle, let alone a 185mph vehicle.

T'would be interesting to see if CAB could establish that a car like this was acquired as a direct result of the proceeds of crime. Then they'd need to catch him.

Christmas present for the Tango boys and girls?

A stolen car wouldn't be proceeds of crime unfortunately. Anyway, tbh I'd imagine that its already in a shipping container out of the country. Too distinctive to hide here
