Why is Dezz the only one here who gets it?
P R O M O T I O N A L
MMA supply the cars, some drunk guy with Paintshop does the decals (apparently) and the Hammers use these cars for city and central urban traffic duties.
Why? They stand out, people look, people see POLICE.
Same way people sticker up Smarts or Hummers (or Aston Martins) - so they are noticed and seen.
My brother was in charge of marketing for HSV when they provided the GTO to VicPol.
There was no cost at all to the Police - it gave HSV a chance to have their car seen (and talked about) and for the Police to have something flashy and prominent to help create a visible presence.
Expect to see this car heading up booze busses on St Kilda Rd, running traffic support for public events, and pulling over people on mobiles driving through the city.
Alan - MMUK FQ cars already out:
