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

and is that 1 seater car? whats the point of having it.....cannot bring the dungu back balai also....

pardon...its 2...enuf to get the driver back lol

power to weight at 1045 per T........that means the car is barely 500kilo.......dare to reach 200mph at that kind of weight......confirm u need "lesen terbang" Kopi O edition from JPJ.

One-seater only ah?
how can car chase motor in traffic jam?

Im expecting bat mobile....

hahaha its to chase them only wut ... then get down handcuff him to the wheels ... then call for backups ... then he goes on and chase another rempit la ...

F1 car to chase mat rempit only?
better that do roadblock instead, cheap and efficient...

harap kereta power driver lembut tak guna.. no use. hehe

how to make people stop ????????it look so fragile how to ram on cars lol

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..

cannot use in malaysia lah... our semi-value roads will certainly destroy it if surpass 60kmh...

lol.. just like the S-Team In the Sonic X anime car... lol

lol...syoknya....thats 200+ bhp...but this 1 nearly 600 at 10500rpm...redline probably 11000.......orgasmic.

190 bhp oni...out rpm meter wooo...on ek4...

of course out leh......need to find those 11k rpm meters...even the type R ones also limit till 10k.

Hmm, the police siren seems to affect the aerodynamics of the car

chase ferrari or lambo , i think

or maybe escorting F1 to public? hehehehehe

that car sure won't be in malaysia ~ ahahahahah

but I strongly recommend m'sia to have 1 or maybe an Evo / Subaru .

you know lah , wira also fly like crazy at highway. must use better !

if the mat rempit bump him from behind then the police is a goner...

2.5sec pick up? Is this the fastest pick up car?

But how to chase when there speed bumps and potholes on the road?? Pieces of expensive carbon fibre will be knocked off the car.

its capable to chase car, but i don't think its capable to stop a car. the built looks like very fragile. just ram the front wheel the goodbye

are police officers race car drivers nowadays??

This one aa.. so senang mau lari la mate..

Just find a 'bonggol' and ram over it, this thing sure stuck one - see how low it is. Or teruk2 pun habis bumper depan dia tu koyak.. hahaha..

Bring this to malaysia and it's USELESS.. with our trafic jams, those mat rempit kan selit2 and dissapear while showing a finger to this superpolicecar.. that's useless.. hehehe...

Oh yeah, my friend who got a subaru imprezza oso says, no need fast car lah in malaysia, where can speed one.. always traffic jam.. u overtake then stop in front, then the car behind can catch up and overtake back.. hehehe

And your point is?
Nobody cares u know.

Haha useless in Malaysia lah ... Rempits go over SPEEDBUMPS flying ... this thing goes over speedbumps scratching and spoiling its whatever is below the car

yayaya......seems like a fist can break it.......loooks like whole body is carbon fibre......

given the quality of our cops .. having this car will make them the newer breed of mat rempits than actually catching the existing ones ..

ya...nobody cares...but to info that vtec also can rev up to 12k rpm...my friend rev up to 9.5k oni...takut he said...but still got power till 10k rpm...

did any1 actually reading?"

easier to run what...m'sia full of lobang and bumps...this car sure sangkut when going over bonggol..

This car available in malaysia ??

when it chase u .
just floor the brake and let it rear end u.

This car is not practical... FC, maintainance will cost like hell...

aiya use F1 car 2 chase normal road cars! biar btul ni?

it looks damn fragile to me
A run over of a hole / bump surely will send this babe to garage
lol

Malaysia always jam...how to use that car to chase mat rempit

Not to chase MAT REMPIT LAHHHH EVERYONE

IS TO CHASE MAT REV-IT!

Mat Rev-IT are the equivalent idiots to MATREMPIT ,but they use cars instead of bikes!

Use this car to chase the Mat Rev-IT and shoot his tyres.Job done.

lol ask malaysia polis to use kancil la see wat aslo follow wat like the DBKL use the Xtrail somore custom officer use wat use the fortuner all go die la! use also copy cat!

chase car no problem
but how to stop the other car
one bump and dunno where the police car gonna end up

since when our bolehland govt got so rich wo....

u stil cant catch the rempit la....
rempit can selok belok lorong le... do ur car can masuk lorong ar?

2 more blind men

You sure .... ? Police car like this will make us pay more tax .. lol
