Thanks for the update Dave. Actually and unfortunately the Met P161 PYW is not mine! I was just interested in this post and checked it out on the DVLA website, sorry for the confusion. I am thinking of doing a Police 800 next year and just wondered how many still survive, not that many I expect. Anyway photos and any other information always welcome.

I knew P161 is still owned by the Met George and is now at the new place at Hendon i think it is - or was that the old place?

Kates is the only other surviving 800 Police car i know of, that said there may well be more!

I've only ever encountered one other ex-Police car and that was a 24v Senator that belonged to a friend of mine. The ironic thing was its demise - it was stolen and burned out!

I suppose if you keep your eyes peeled on ebay an 800 Police car might well come up at some point - good luck if it does!
Cheers,
Dave
