First RegisteredMarch to August 2012 in Leeds
NOTES

The photos also show what it looked like in its previous life as a police response car. This Astra was being retired from front-line duties with North Yorkshire Police in 2019. Instead of sending it to auction as normal, the workshops converted it into a first responder car to give it a new lease of life. This arrangement was facilitated by NYP and NYFRS sharing workshop facilities. When the vehicle entered service with NYFRS in summer 2019 it was initially used for transport duties before being properly used as a first responder car. A sister vehicle is YJ12 BDZ which is exactly the same; an ex-police vehicle converted to a first responder.

First RegisteredMarch to August 2013 in Leeds
NOTES

This Astra served the North part of York all of its working life from 2013 to 2019. It was used by Safer Neighbourhood officers (PCSOs) and was a firm favourite with children at events where they got to sit in it and play with the blue lights and siren. Despite having a new gearbox fitted in 2018 it became less and less reliable. A severe engine breakdown in spring 2019 brought its police life to an end. It was replaced with a Peugeot 308 (YJ69 FMK) in autumn 2019.
