My dogs new whip
so after selling the mrs 330 and buy her the 335 vert Simba needed a new car
So!!! picked this up with my neighbour on Sunday hence couldnt go DC12, driving this home on the motorway was cool no one wanted to overtake lol! Its a rare Mondeo version, most of the police dog vans are Ford focus :-), however the Lancashire police use the Mondeo for some reason maybe there dogs are bigger lol just needs a bit of TLC and sorted. The conversion on theses is about 7-16k, there are no rear seats as the dog cages go all the way to the front seats. You have 2 storage boxes for guns (I mean dog leads etc) and the back of the dog cages are double glazed sliding doors so you can open them up and speak to your dog to tell them how great you are lol!. the fan is working so they can keep cool :-). All in all its great and does what it says on the tin :-) Speaking of which here is Simba! Nearly 2 years now a cheeky lad but you dont want to piss him off! (I do but I am the alpha male so he knows the score lol)! A proper SALA GSD :-) |

Makes me laugh too. Some little panda car trundling along with half the M1 backed up behind it just in case they radio ahead for some Police! Camera! Action! stinger/helicopter/chase/box type thing to get the rep in the Mondeo doing 72mph.
And don't tell me they don't find it funny too. I know I do if I keep my hi vis coat on. So OP, keeping the stripes? :edit: And those things on the back of the X5. Is that how the dogs get in? |

I always thought the X5 stock exhaust tips looked well on them, no offence to the OP but it doesn't look right with a massive exhaust in the middle of the bumper.

i wanted the G power rear bumper but you have to buy the whole kit which is 12,500 euro, then id have to fit it and re paint the whole car bar the roof so its wasnt worth it. The total cost of doing this inc the custom rear bumper cost about £1500 quid which was more within my budget lol :-) |

Does the X5 really two roof spoilers. Nothing wrong with the standard one IMHO but if you really wanted to add a new one it would look better with the old one removed, doesn't look like the new one is wide enough .......... but, each to their own of course.
