I wouldn't exactly refer to a Crown Vic as "speed" . As for "cheap", they get the cars at a huge discount from the manufacturer. I've heard that the police pay £21000 for a new Jaguar XF, which costs £35000 new. Of course, that's without equipment, but I imagine equipment costs the same regardless of car. And they…
