it was, but due to an exposed number plate and it being an unmarked car I've had to remove the link until a license plate friendly photo is uploaded as per the board's requirements. I think I've seen this one or similar occasionally as it's turned into Midland Police station.

So a car turns into a Police Station? Wow... TARDIS technology on Earth. :lol:

Nice looking car.

That's why I've only seen it occasionally all the other times it's been the station ;) maybe not TARDIS style more Red Alert - Command and Conquer style

I got asked not to film a brand new blue one at a house fire the other week. They are nice looking cars and I bet they are catching heaps of hoons.

When you see them with the lights on they look awesome... The big blue roof mounted light sparkles the sky from the recent Footy match where a Freo docker decided to curb jump... right in front of an unmarked WRX
I've closed the door!

WRX's are the type of cars that draw attention, it's just a pity that every 2nd unmarked police car I see now is a WRX.

Last week I saw 3 different ones in 3 different days (grey, black and silver).

Compared to a Aussie 6cyl these cars cost a premium to service (especially at Subaru) and I bet the running costs out-strip a VE/FG by a country mile.
