Now, the Police car here is no different to that shown earlier under the prototype police car. However, this is the Matchbox UK example and it really is a tidy design. Scalewise, it is probably the biggest and fattest of all the Powertrack cars and this bulk can make itself known on the track and performing those famous U-turns.
Of course, the Race & Chase stands like a colossus over the Powertrack product range and tends to be the one most people remember. They remember this because of the Police chase aspect and it certainly spawned copy cat sets from Aurora and that infamous 'Dukes Of Hazzard' rip off.
The Police car bought the capability of U-turning to the masses and the bonus of the roof lights were a world apart from previous slot racing sets. However, if I have one grumble it is this:
Why didn't they make the lights flash?
