I remember when the escort cosworth came out the cops in my home town bought a couple for chasing joyriders who were stealing fast cars. The joyriding scumbags then used to taunt the cops in the cosworths to see if they could out run them, which they couldn't, so they started flying over kerbs and speed humps to get away which the cops wouldn't do in their nice new cars!! crazy huh?
I also remebber when i worked in London about 18 years ago seeing a RS200 cop car on the M25 a few times, anyone remember them? i think i have the name right, RS200 awesome looking rally car.
