Nope, last time i was there (good year ago now) Thames Valley Police just disposed of their first generation BMW fleets, so early 330d's and 530d's were going through, at the time, they went for 5-6k

Google "ex-police vehicles" and it comes up with a load of people that sell them.

Looking for the L322 model? TD6 or 4.4 V8 or TDV8?
And e60 or e61? e61 being the estate variant.

A mate of mine in Ayelsbury bought a white unmarked vectra estate BEFORE it went to Thames Valley Police. They cancelled the order days before delivery. Everything was uprated from brakes,suspension,headlamps and the exhaust. It was made out of site at the rear and square section tail pipes facing downwards. 3.2 and lightning quick.2004 IIRC
