YJ53 ENE This silver Nissan Terrano is fitted with three roof-rack mounted blue lights, as well as a telescopic white floodlight. There are also blue repeater lights in the front grille and it is decked out in blue and yellow battenburg markings.



The rear shot shows a very unusual feature: two different police force crests. This Terrano is operated by both North Yorkshire Police and the Ministry of Defence Police. Two important military installments are based in North Yorkshire (Menwith Hill and Fylingdales) so close collaboration between the forces is needed. Notice also that the spare tyre has been removed.

EO02 JUE This is a MoD police Mitsubishi Shogun 4×4.

EU53 ZJK This truck is a Mercedes with a beaver tail lift on the rear.

Inside the rear of the Mercedes are a number of seats and stowage compartments.

A look at the front / side of the red quad. Notice the two small MoD police crests of the front. It is obviously not used for high-visibility policing.
