I was pulled over by KD101 (im pretty sure that was its callsign) about 200km out of Eucla last Thursday.
It was a VZ Commodore wagon + GDLB + HF Antenna + 4 spotties on front.
Pulled me over for doing 109km/h with a trailer. totally forgot about the 100km/h limit.
The officers were both extremely friendly and were having a good chat to us for about 5 minutes about our boats were were towing.

Absolutely. I thought it was funny that is was the ONLY police car we saw the whole drive... And I happened to be pulled over.

I got to have a seat in the passenger seat of the police car because I requested to view the reading, this is when the Constable explained that the reason they pulled me over was because there were hundreds of Kangaroos on the road ahead and that 9km/h can make a huge difference if one was to jump out ect ect....

so you got out sat in the car and still not 100% sure of the callsign!! Only joking. Good to see that you're one of these people that don't try and contest everything like that n00b we had earlier.

Methinks Mount Barker has a replacement for LM201. The old version is a Commodore station wagon, the new one looks to be an Omega. No further details - I drove past Mt Barker Police Station this evening and saw "??201" in the rear of the station. The same vehicle was seen on Monday driving around. Will try to get more details soon.

Spotted LS201 (VE SV8 HWP) and LNxxx (BF XR6T HWP) in Williams on Thursday, followed LS201 down, lost him at Kojonup (he seemed to give the right pedal a squirt a few times ). Got a few pics that will be up later (the passenger took em, honest). The VE's look nice from the back, but still not a fan of the looks. Wonder how they go compared to the Fords?
Also spotted OB201 (BF XR6T HWP) (although not really country) this arvo returning to Perth
Pics as promised! http://gallery.clonnyserver.com/main.php?g2_itemId=798
