Here's a relic from the past. It seems Volvos have always been a police favourite and the 121 Amazon was favoured for its strong build quality and reliability.

Electric cars are NOT green!! They require charging and that means a huge power station churning out even more pollution (Nothing is 100% efficient) Just moves the pollution from the exhaust pipe to the power station chimney.

They clearly have money to waste in Australia! Here in the UK, we could get another 3,000 Policemen/women ON OUR STREETS if we took away 50% of the 'Noddy cars' our Thames Valley Police use.
Buy them all bicycles, even better, tandems, and see our street crime wave drop.
Now, what about that, Police Commissioner ????????

Please correct:

PICTURE 34 (Toyota Crown 1974 convertible is not in India. Its actually Karachi, Pakistan and the road where it is standing is (Main Korangi Road). 

They got this car from Pakistan Navy auction and is only used during protocols.

Please correct this.
