Have you noticed the list of cars it'll fit?
Wonder what a Bentley Arnage would look like with it fitted :lol:  :lol:  :lol:

Me dad has had a similar kit fitted to his 406 by the fire brigade, as well as strobes in the front grill and a removable light bar on the roof.
 It is very tempting sometimes when someone overtakes you on a blind bend just too 'accidentally' knock the lights and sirens on  :twisted: . But it's more than my license is worth!

There was somebody hurtling around Bucks a few years back with a horse box with blue flashing lights.  They were a self-styled horse ambulance.  The emergency services politely pointed out to them that you can't put flashing blue lights on your vehicle willy-nilly.

However, on the laning trip we did last weekend I noticed Steve from Lanerovers had a yellow flashing light, plus a neon safety jacket in the back, which gave an amazing degree of credibility.  Looks like a great way of avoiding unwanted complaints from members of the public.

I don't know if this was the same one you saw but there used to be a horse ambulances a few years ago that attended the Cheshire show, I never actually seen them use the blue lights but they had them fitted to the trailer and to the Mitsubishi that was towing it. Sometimes used to see it whilst on the M56 so it must have been one based in Cheshire.
