Manufacturer description

We've taken Ford's Transit Connect as used by the Irish Garda, to introduce a fine addition to any Police vehicle collector's line-up.

The white body features a yellow stripe along each side edged with blue and a high visibility red and yellow chevron effect across the back doors. The registration plate places the vehicle as coming from Dublin. To be identified from the air, the letters CO are printed boldly in black on the roof of the van behind the blue and red light bar, while the Garda lettering and logo appear along each side of the vehicle, along with the website and freephone number.
