Michael. 2313 Report post Posted December 29, 2021 Just pondering about what the legality and issues might be when people make those replica police cars - obviously local AU / NZ ones are a no go, but overseas models that are older and clearly not typical police cars local to the area seem to be made occasionally. I understand a car saying "police" is not allowed, nor flashing lights, and the lights are typically needed to be covered when the car is driven on the public road but does anyone have anymore guidance / opinion on such. Cheers! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IIRC most of the aspects of a Police vehicle are covered under the relevant sections of the VIRM - for example lights, having blue lights forward facing on a vehicle, etc. I have seen a few vehicles that replicate overseas law enforcement vehicles - mostly USA style. Mike from the Surgery in Wellington used to bring a Mustang to Manfield that had a big sheriff's badge on the doors and bonnet and was in the classic black and white style, quite cool. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
