Dubai Police’s enviable sports and over-the-top car collection is known to the Emiratis and while the authorities boast of top supercars, a new one joins their supercar squad.

The Aston Martin Vantage has officially joined the force’s acclaimed luxury car squad. The supercar will soon make its debut alongside other models in the fleet at the much-awaited Expo 2020 next month.

The force’s fleet already boasts a collection of top-end brands, including Bentley, Bugatti, Lamborghini, McLaren, Rolls Royce, and Ferrari, to name a few.

The world-renowned police force, that even has robots will now have this supercar dressed in full livery, complete with flashing lights being driven on the roads of Dubai.

The Vantage stands apart due to its unique and bold design language, and the current model features a 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine with a peak power output of 503BHP and a torque peak of 505lb-ft, mated to a rear-mounted 8-speed automatic gearbox manufactured by ZF.

The Dubai Police’s Vantage features a custom ‘77’ number plate, the number 7, that signifies the UAE’s seven emirates. The number also pays tribute to the British marque’s long-standing association with the world’s most famous secret agent--James Bond.

In fact, the supercar’s addition comes just in time before the release of the much-awaited Bond film ‘Time to Die’ in October.

Expert Major General Khalil Ibrahim Al Mansouri, Assistant Commander-in-Chief for Criminal Investigation Affairs, received a comprehensive handover of the vehicle in the presence of several senior officers and lauded the close co-operation with Aston Martin Lagonda Limited-MENA.
