2010 Jaguar XF Diesel S Police Car

The first ever Police-spec XF is about to go on patrol across the Midlands. The Central Motorway Police Group, which patrols motorways across Staffordshire, Mercia and the West Midlands has bought seven high performance Police vehicles based on the award-winning Jaguar XF Diesel S model.

A roof mounted light bar with 3600 blue flashing lights and integrated side alley lights, blue and white flashing LED lights inside the front grille, side mounted blue flashing LED lights, blue and red flashing LED lights integrated in the rear light clusters and a Home Office-specification electronics ‘Police pack’ that powers a full suite of electronic equipment help make these cars the ultimate Police vehicles.

Geoff Cousins, Managing Director for Jaguar Cars UK, said: “Police drivers demand the very best from their vehicles ? power, performance, safety and comfort are all very important, while their fleet managers are looking at good environmental credentials and strong residual values to ensure value for money.

You think this is anything ??

Over the last 4 years in London the Standard Police Issue vehicle is the BMW 530d or 330d

Then i have seen X5s Range Rovers, Even David Cameron was complaining on the "Leaders Debate" that he was made aware of a Police Station which was in the process of Purchasing a £73,000 Lexus Vehicle.

Can anyone on this forum give me a reasonable explanation as to what Crime Fighting Qualities this vehicle would bring to the table.
