Have you ever been chased by the police?

 

I have seen their pursuits many times and seen their total disregard for the vehicle.

it's just a tool to do the job. If that job requires smashing over a traffic island at 80 kph , running up perpendicular gutters at speed or using their vehicles as battering rams , they will.

have you ever rented a car?

have you ever had a company supplied car?

tell me you would treat them the same as your own.

Better off putting Brembos on a one owner with perfect service history.

Everyone is so scared about buying a modded car for fear it's been trashed.

Cops treat those cars as if they were there own cars and they just paid $44k for them.:ermm::pandalol:

No, I've never been chased by the police.

Yes, I've seen pursuits.

So what if it's a "tool to do the job"? Mine have always been tools to be given a belting every now and then :idunno:

Yes, I've rented cars.

Yes, I've had a company supplied car in the past.

Yes, I treat them just as my own because I have mechanical sympathy. So... where does that leave us?

When my friend was in WAPOL he said the coppers used to flog the sh1t out of the XR6T's & the GEN III's as he said to "get their money's worth" out of them So I would never get an ex-chaser even though they have been serviced regularly etc.

yeah I agree they are well maintained serviced etc but surly them running 24/7 as they don't turn them off wouldn't be a good thing

 

One heat cycle is better than multiple cycles. Why do you think taxis can go a million km's on the same engine?

After reading some of the experiences of forum members, I'd be more worried about the timing chain skipping teeth, as I doubt they would ever check anything like that unless there was an obvious problem.

Then again I'm always a little paranoid when it comes to big purchases so don't mind me [emoji106]
