Among other things, the Commodore cop car is equipped with a powerful all-in-one computer which quickly relays information to the user.

Here are some of the car’s high tech gadgets: Voice recognition software that allows police to use the computer while keeping their hands on the wheel; Front and
rear cameras that beam real-time footage to communications centers where a supervisor can monitor the car's speed and position; Automatic number plate recognition camera on the roof which is capable of scanning 5000 to 8000 cars in a 10-hour session (!) and -the best gadget- a system that fires a dart with an embedded GPS transponder into a suspect vehicle!

Number 4 is a good gadget.

Didnt do as well as you make out on the Top Gear challenge though did it?? Towards the bottom of the pack I seem to recall?

It's not even a Vaux so why VXR badging, its a Holden, designed and built in Aus, with Vaux badges plonked on by the powers that be at GM headquarters...

Id personally take the Alfa 147 GTA Autodelta before id take this, same price range, much more class, and not a Ford or Vaux badge on the back... the 328bhp version is hellishly frightning, the 422bhp version is just downright rediculous!!

If they had kept the Holden badges on, it would help it shed loads, but the people who can afford these car's arnt going to want a Vauxhall lol.
