If the thought of evading the police when the sirens come on has ever entered your mind you had better think again because the car in your review mirror could just be a Caparo T1 supercar, capable of traveling at 200mph. Don't sweat just yet. This Caparo T1 decked in police livery is just a concept vehicle developed by the UK's Met Police and Caparo for the MPH '07 show set for this weekend in London.

Dubbed the Rapid Response Vehicle (RRV), the new concept is intended as a deterrent to anyone who thinks they can get away with speeding. If you're unfamiliar with Caparo's upcoming supercar all you need to know is that it's essentially the closest thing to a road legal Formula One car. It features a high-revving 3.5L V8 engine developing 575bhp (425kW) at 10,500rpm and 420Nm (310lbft) of torque at 9,000rpm.

The end result is a 0-60mph time of less than 2.5 seconds and the ability to reach 100mph within five seconds. Braking performance is no less impressive with 100mph to standstill being delivered in 3.5 seconds. This means the Caparo T1 is lighter and faster even than a race-winning Le Mans sports car.

Overall description
. Advanced technology composites for ultra lightweight construction
. 575bhp V8 engine / 550kg kerb weight
. 1,045bhp-per-tonne power-to-weight ratio for ultra high performance
. Fully tuneable aerodynamics
. 2-seater
. Rear mid-engine layout
. Built for discerning customers but also technology flagship for Caparo Vehicle Technologies - demonstrating principles of lightweight vehicle design which can also be applied to everyday cars

its a two seater.

It's a two seater... but then again, what's the point if it just burst into flames all the sudden?

for mat REVIT not rempit

revit=cars
rempit=bike

use a so expensive and nice car to chase rempit?... funny

yeah...those rempit don't really go that fast...current police cars should be able to keep up, but not in the lorong only

my friend vtec b18c can rev to 10,000 rpm..
