Police mini vans are back in service - local yokel
Driving N bound on the A34 just now I saw a new Mini on a transporter, with the rear side windows covered over with vinyl, and the logo of Hampshire Police on the vivyl and a Police Community Support Officer sticker on the rear bumper.

Fashion victim or what? Are they being sponsored by BMW?

It'll be what it says on it - a sponsored vehicle for the PCSOs. We had a very similar conversation about the met's sponsored Civics on here recently.

Haven't Hampshire Police been using BMWs for many years now? Pretty sure was they had 5 series as far back as the early to mid 80s.

Probably not a real mini, probably a fake!

They'll be worth a look at in 3 yers time, when de-fleeted.

Hampshire come only second to Thames Vally as well presented & EXCEPTIONALLY well documented service records.

They'll be good value in the auction!
