#CopGear Special Event – Central London – Get Involved!
Some of the most iconic cop cars in the history of UK policing are taking to the roads of London on Wednesday for a special event.
Follow #CopGear on Twitter for updates on the event
More details will be released tomorrow on the Met Police Facebook page but in the meantime you can read up on one of the participants – the 1970 Morris Minor 1000 Panda Car.
Do you know anyone who has driven one of these classics? What is your favourite classic police vehicle of all time? – AP
Top Speed 76mph! Blimey, they are better than the current disAstras which can only reach a top speed of 40mph… going down hill.
With a tail wind
…and The Stig driving.
Its an embarrassment now, we have corsa’s……I am 6’02” and weigh 19stone (mostly muscle) and squeezing into a corsa with a colleague both in body armour doesn’t leave a lot of space and makes driving hard, the other car we have is a hyundai not much more space in that……
76mph? Mine will do that on a tow truck!
I have driven them all. Organised the town and community shows and the rover 827 is a lovely drive
I saw them all at the Dagenham Fayre a couple of years ago. The rover video car is proper awesome!

Not sure if that linked worked. The old Rover. A beast of a car.
