Are a few unmarked cars around the muswellbrook / singleton area. Believe it or not they have been in mini's lately. I have seen to different mini's with police driving them. number plate goes along the line of MIN-11? i seen MIN-11A and MIN-119 .

Just a heads up for the people of the hunter

Keep an eye out for these F6 Typhoon HWP cars in Sydney...







I have seen these cars on Parramatta Road, M4, Great Western H/Way, Cumberland H/way etc… and they often travel in pairs.

Fairfield car…

yes around singo the silver unmarked VZ. It also hangs around muswellbrook, denman and merriwa. I think its favourite spot is the highway between singleton and muswellbrook. It is always there (police hot spot). I passed 5 patrol and unmarked cars along that highway on the way home from singo the other day. Its crazy!!

Another thing i have been noticing lately around singleton and muswellbrook is the new patrol cars. None of this stock white with the police stripes etc. I have seen a dark blue ve, light green falcon, red sorta colour falcon etc. Police are starting to be sneaky little buggers. I came around a corner and didnt even recognise one until i got close enough to notice the lights on top.

Quite a few of the pics are taken by other everyday people, like me. I've emailed photos of HWP cars to the guy that runs the site.

I saw the yellow/gold coloured Typhoon on Parramatta Road this morning.
