Dubai showed off some of its police cars at the motor show

Audi SQ5
We know Dubai has an excellent fleet of police cars. We’ve shown you loads in the past. There are some 13 or so supercars and exotica liveried up in green and white, earning them a spot on any ‘world’s best police cars’ list. A bit like this list.

At the 2019 Dubai Motor Show, a few of them were on display. And these aren’t just show ponies – an actual Dubai police officer told TopGear.com that they properly use their amazing fleet for real.

So, this pair of SQ5s aren’t the most outlandish, but as accomplished SUVs go they’re bang up for the job.

Well, it certainly beats a battered old Vauxhall Astra, doesn’t it? Biturbo V8s FTW.

Even the police force of Dubai recognises the inherent brilliance of a naturally aspirated V10, and are keen to celebrate its prowess. Either that, or a liveried Audi supercar looks ace. Probs the latter.

Well, if you’re going to dress something up in police colours, why not do it with some style?

Chasing down crims is, one suspects, incredibly stressful. A very powerful, very fast, very luxurious and well damped, massive Bentley is, one also suspects, a fine tonic.

Oh god, don’t look directly at it. DON’T LOOK! RUN AWAY! RUN!
