Rapid response fire brigade?

[Knuckles]

I saw this tonight, I was a little taken aback lol.

Car checked it when I got in then googled it and found pics, overkill?

 

[Andy_con]

how much water can a Scooby hold?

 

[Knuckles]

It must've been full to the brim because it was quite low

 

[Herr Flick]

Surely with s**t loads of water in it, it isn't well... 'Rapid'?

 

[Dan@SJM]

It won't have any fire fighting stuff like that. It'll be a fire officer car.

So it won't be like that episode of top gear?!

It's only a WRX so not really any different to having an Octavia VRS etc that others have.

There's a little bit of a difference between a 2.5t petrol awd sports car and a 2.0 diesel business mobile though

Not much difference between a WRX and a petrol VRS tbh. Or the BMW's, Turbo'd Volvos etc that the use for the same job.

Simple mistake of thinking every Impreza is the fastest thing ever..

 

[STICKER TWONK]

Agree with other comments, don't see any difference between that Impreza and other cars used for the same job. TBH, they probably got a deal on that shape Impreza as no-ones bought one, ever.

 

[JaredHasNoBrain]

Would be cool to see it on the road lol
But its probably what the ambulance do with a quick response so the subaru can get there first and see how big the fire is or something.

Don't understand why they didn't sell too well, the WRX version on it is stunning.

 

[Knuckles]

I was more shocked that they're using a 2.5t awd petrol hot hatch tbh, I'd have thought there would be a stigma against such an inefficient car nowadays lol.

i think it's awesome myself

 

[George@RTR_Parts]

They use them to promote road safety at schools/colleges and galas etc

It gets the 17/18 year old lads attention and they can have a nosey round it and then the FS spread their message. Ie wear your seat belt and don't drive like a bell end on the roads

Subaru let them have a few across the country FOC iirc

They did similar with the police service near me a few years ago, gave them some wrx's to sticker up like police cars and take to car events like weston wheels etc.

Similar subject, I had to chuckle at Cheshire police's new fleet of panda cars. Having had 5 series tourings, X5s and a few new RangeRovers over the last few years, their new job lot of i30s tickled me!

Where's that Police Murcielago again?

This is even cooler though:

Ere guvnor, the crooks are getting cossies, how we going to catch em?

We'll get RS200s

 

[JD]

I've only seen the Italian Gallardo before - those are great, Chip!

 

[McGherkin]

I just had a little accident at that RS200.

 

[MG cup]

That cop cars are brilliant, the Lambo has the press car plate on it?

The Scoob could just be a fast response vehicle, 4wd is more reliable for getting to most situations and they arent slow.

We used to sell the fire service fast response 4x4 and 6x4 trucks that were unlimited and could get to about 80-90mph, it all came about after terrorist threats of the early 2000's.

While were on the subject, Aberdeens fire engines are pretty cool too IMO.

 

[coolspot007007]

We have a pink one in Liverpool, looks really odd when on calls.

 

[Chip-mk1]

If I saw that pink one I would just assume it was a hen night limo.
