UK’s Metropolitan Police has a teamed up with Brit supercar manufacturer, Caparo, to conceive a futuristic Rapid Response Vehicle (RRV) that will be shown at MPH ’07 this weekend. The Caparo T1, powered by a 575 Hp 3.5-liter V8 engine, is one of the craziest supercars around capable of accelerating from 0 to 100 mph (160 km/h) in just 5.0 seconds and onto a top speed of 200mph (320 km/h). Yes, we know that cops will never get a car like this but even the boyz in blue are entitled to a little pipe dreaming now and then.
With the MPH show set to start today at Earls Court in London, Jeremy Clarkson and co. have teamed up with the Metropolitan Police to produce what really can only be described as an awesome looking Caparo T1 RRV (Rapid Response vehicle).
Capable of accelerating to 100mph in just 5 seconds (yes thats five seconds), and capable of reaching speeds of up to 200 mph, this Caparo T1 RRV would be deployed on the M25 Motorway.
As you would expect this is purely just for show and will never make it onto the british roads but if you do find one of these chasing you down, here’s a piece of advice from WCF – don’t waste your time trying to get away, this is one car you wll not outrun.
MET POLICE – RAPID RESPONSE VEHICLE
Getaway drivers and outside lane lovers beware! The Met Police has a teamed up with Brit supercar manufacturer, Caparo, to conceive a brand new Rapid Response Vehicle (RRV) for the future – on show at MPH ’07 this weekend.
Capable of accelerating from a Police lay-by to 100mph in just 5 seconds and onto a top speed of 200mph, the Caparo T1 RRV would be deployed to hunt down car criminals within the M25.
Like everything else in the Met Police’s armoury, this bespoke RRV is intended as a deterrent. Just check your mirrors next time you fancy breaking the speed limit!
