So it's official. The Dutch police is replacing the VW Touran with 2300 Mercedes B-classes (220d) and 600 Vito's, over a timespan of 7 years.

Opel (Vauxhall), BMW/MINI, Peugeot and Volkswagen also applied to deliver but scored lower.

Did they choose wisely?

They use modified Volvo V70 T6s for those.

Makes me wonder who actually buys b-classes
>"Yes I'd like a bloated A-class, with no added practicality whatsoever, and like the A-class is the most expensive of its class while still being a shitty fwd with a renault-tier interior"

You're right such a nimble, practical and quality vehicle would be perfect for the streets of Amsterdam.
>>
>>17279501
Because European police are your friend and helper, not a badly trained paramilitary force in disguise. Sorry to hear you live in the third world.

Pic related. The pick up is even partially on the pedestrian walkway.

I'd just prefer if (our) toothpastepolice would swap the faggy Passat R line station wagons for CLA shooting brakes, those seem quite fancy

Seeing an A segment car next to it really emphasizes how small they really are

Neat, but still unnecessary in countries where all relevant roads are paved.

I used to be such a naysayer, thinking that giving cops pick ups and SUVs was a waste, until I saw one of these ripping thought a park in a chase.

btw the Dodge apparently only got sent to the most isolated parts of my country (Chile), that are as empty as Alaska.
>>
>>17279621
Hence my comment about paved roads. I know large parts of Chile are only accessible on dirt roads.

>B class
top kek literally the last relic from the shit era of Mercedes. Unreliable, slow, absolutely horrible to work on. Why not choose the A class instead or or C class wagons like we have them in Germany?

They probably got them cheap as nobody wants to buy a B-Class

The police here got a load of Honda VFR1200s rather than the BMW K1300s that came out as the better machine in the assessments because Honda couldn't sell them so they gave the Met a 50% discount on each bike.
>>
>>17279689
BMWs are shit bikes though.
>>
>>17279530
Europeans really are faggots. Why are they even on this board when all they do is ride bicycles anyways.
>>
>>17279652
You're not proving a point. Every country has riot police, but not every country tries to make their regular police forces look as intimidating and dangerous as possible when really they're just badly trained fat retards with big guns.
>>
>>17279458
It's nearly impossible to own anything remotely fast here, so no, there basically aren't.
>>
>>17279458
There aren't.
