The recent Home Office Scientific Development Branch (HODSB) show saw General Motors’ Vauxhall division displaying its new generation Astra police vehicle that is offered for UK and overseas law enforcement officials.

Dick Ellam, Manager Vehicle Conversions for Vauxhall said: “It was a great honour to be asked to exhibit the new generation Astra at such an influential show, particularly with an organisation as well regarded as ACPO. We were delighted to be able to show our British built Astra to so many of the leaders in today’s law enforcement industry.”

Along with the latest-generation Astra, GM’s European arm also offers a police version of the new Insignia (to be sold as the Buick Regal in the States).
