i remember reading in TOPGEAR (car magazine in the UK) about the Italian Police force having a Lambogini as a pursuit car.. priceless... of course a MINI would be much more stylish.

They should have upgraded to the JCW, though. Might just become a cop if they do. Legal speed.

Just makes it a bit hard when they arrest you and put you in the back of the patrol car to take you down to the station.

Speaking of that Italian Police Gallardo...

Didn't they stack it recently? I seem to recall seeing a picture of it on the back of a flat bed truck with one wheel pretty much destroyed and a fair quantity of body work damage. Can't find the pic now for the life of me though
