Thought you all may want to check this out. It's a big file (69 megs) but well worth the download time.

This was taken during the Gumball 3000 in Italy. The cops are driving a 145 not a 147 as stated below:

"During the Italian leg of the Gumball 3000 rally in Europe this past May, Alex Roy, Jalopnik’s road-rally correspondent, lead pilot of Team Polizei and king of all media, asked a few Italian police officers (in an Alfa Romeo 147) where they could find a gas station. What followed may be the most insane Gumball 3000 incident ever caught on video."

It's insane.

145? Looks more like some kind of Subaru Legacy wagon. Definitely not an Alfa 145 (2 doors)

Good God man, I think you maybe right. The plates should be located lower on the rear than they are. The tail lights are different as well and the number of doors. Good work, better eye than me.

I guess the thread should be relocated...

The insanity of racing exotic, highly tuned cars across Europe is well documented and this year's Gumball 3000 rally is no exception. Some celebs are involved including Tony Hawk and a team of four in a Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8. We have first hand reports coming in from Team Polizei with Alex Roy and Michael Ross behind the wheel of a "highly modified" Bentley Continental GT. Here are the first two updates, and keep checking our Gumball 3000 page for further updates throughout the rally.
