The first R17 rover 800 appears early in season 9 episode 36. The car appears as a green unmarked flying squad vehicle.

I believe the first marked police version appears in the episode Night Beat Season 11 ep 105, this one's an ARV.

Both pictures aren't the best quality.

Hi racerfan, i edited your post in order to resize the pics as they were too big for the " all comments " page .
You can use the " store pictures on the site " link ( and make sure the automatic resize box is checked , which will turn them into a clickable thumbnail ) if you have more pics to post eventually :)

i might be wrong but i think the marked police car is a Ford ( Sierra ? )

Hey, Baube thank you for that, didn't know about the store picture function, thank you for pointing that out.

As for the rover, there is one behind the sierra, but I should've got more pictures, where there is more light in the particular scene.

Wow I didn't know that but I will look into it, they used a 1991 827, in the earlier series, /vehicle_1378687-Rover-827-XX-1991.html

Still alive somehow

SM99 wrote Still alive somehow

I don't think so - MOT expired on 7 March 2009. No trace on DVLA main site, which would flag up SORN if it was stashed away somewhere.

After police use would they sell them to the pubic or scrap them?

There are police vehicle auctions (and other emergency/utility vehicle disposals). No doubt some of our police/emergency sightings in films/TV have been bought by sourcing agents to carry on their life onscreen. There is also a school of thought within the Bangernomics fraternity (= the art of buying an old cheap thing and keeping it going for minimal cost) that ex-police cars are excellent opportunities - they'll be cheap, possibly fairly high mileage and might have strange poverty spec with a very limited colour choice, but will have been maintained to a very high standard in service and will have the best spec for rugged oily bits.

i don't know for that fraternity but here ex-police cars bought at auctions by civilians ( and probably movie cars rental companies ) is a common thing too, i've already seen a bunch ( including a grey 2012+ Charger today , even had a push bar on )

another one seen a few times is Link to "www.flickr.com"
