Thanks to our reader Doug, who sent us the idea!

Italy's State Police can easily claim to have the world's coolest cop car after Lamborghini gifted them this Gallardo LP560-4. The 203mph, 560bhp supercar replaces a standard Gallardo that the Italian police had used for four years and 87,000 miles. (Link)


The Brabus CLS V12 S Rocket, which has a top speed of 225mph, was unveiled at the Essen Motor Show in Germany and competes with Italy's Lamborghini for the title of world's fastest police car. (Link)


It packs a 500bhp V8 engine, it can accelerate from 0-100mph in just five seconds, and it weighs less than 500kg – it is the Caparo T1. Imagine trying to escape from cops using this beauty. (Link)

This is the Carbon Motors E7, a new police car prototype equipped with sensors for weapons of mass destruction and automatic numberplate scanners that became the talk of a law enforcement convention in the US. (Link)

The Gem - or Global Electric Motorcar - was unveiled in Brighton and is being trialled by Sussex Police for use by neighbourhood police teams, in an attempt to cut down on pollution problems as officers patrol the streets. But with a 28mph top speed, it is unlikely that this environmentally friendly future of police cars will be catching any criminals. (Link)
