TTC Humberside Police decided to go with the lesser-known
Proton Persona 1.3 LSi for their main panda cars. Here is one of their
1997 examples, somewhat lacking in livery when viewed from head on. |
 |
The side view shows the traditional red stripe of
Humberside Police. This Proton is a sensible alternative to Ford's and
Vauxhall's offering for beat cars. In 1997 Persona LSi would have only
cost £8800 in the showroom, and even less when bought in bulk by the
police. |
