@ListerLawrence I remember a time when my local force were offered C Class mercs, 40% cheaper than the Octavia’s they went for. The Chief said it a bad look to have expensive looking cars regardless of thier actual cost. I don’t think they consider much more other than public perception.
@AndyatAuto I’m a Project Controls Manager. I’ve worked on some of the UKs biggest projects, almost every one goes over time and budget, due to behavioural issues brought on by leadership teams who won’t be truthful to thier clients or sponsors, who drempt up thier initial estimates.
@AndyatAuto@SimonCarGuy I also heard the reasoning about armouring of vehicles being the main issue. I’m not sure why we wouldn’t be capable of armouring a Range Rover.
@TedWelford I know a guy who has a similar situation. Daily’s a car worth about 10k now with a ££75k plate on it. He also has some beautiful cars in his garage, he just wants to use all his plates rather than retention.
