Correct about the Nissan Skyline not being used in New Zealand, the Tasmania Police Force in Australia did use special turbocharged Nissan Skyline R31s for pursuit work in the late 1980s, which sometimes leads to confusion about NZ usage.

I got pulled over by an Asian Police Officer for speeding, and I asked her if some (or all) of the Supurbs have the 4x4 system, and she says that some do! I am glad that they do because someone in a Ford Ranger Might go off road to get away and that wouldn't be good! Also, I spotted a New Police Ford Ranger T6, so that's helpful, too!

Pretty sure there actually was 1 or 2 WRXs. Think there was at least 1 around Ruapehu area at the time

the grey Belmonts with their single red cherry...happy childhood memories of my dad (local constable) pulling up outside my classroom to bring me lunch on a rainy day with the lights on and then calling to me over the PA. I thought it was cool, my mates thought it was cool - I suppose these days it would be considered cringy...

The entire New Zealand Police car inventory is still less Police cars than they crashed in the Blues Brothers movie!
