Now using Toyota Corolla wagons and Mazda tributes as Mobile Cameras in Victoria (Mill Park, Greensborough, Rosanna) Starting to see a few VY VZ Commodore Wagons as undercover cars too around Rosanna from the Heidelberg police station in Victoria.

I got pulled over by a black XR6 Turbo, undercover cop in plain clothes on a sunday night around 7.30 right near my house...

had rims, was lowered, had the CB antennae and everything...always be wary of new model cars with anything looking out of the ordinary

they're sneaky buggers

keep an eye out for white transit vans (or similar) with a number printed on the back. Something like P34696 in black. Seem to have a few of these around as camera cars

One big giveaway and its harder to tell these days on the newer cars is the mudflaps will be missing and the exhaust will be pushed up into the bumper more.

I guess they do it for high speed chases so they dont grind the flaps and exhaust over bumps.
Not sure if its all cop cars though

Ozzie, definatly not all cop cars have that. And the undercover ones nowadays are pretty much the same as what normally people would purchase, then they can modify them however they want. Some dont even get modified. But the SS's are currently setting the benchmark for maximum speed in chases, no other vic police vehicle is rated for the speeds like the SS's.
