At the time, Cambridgeshire Constabulary shared snaps of the German car with its iconic ‘butterfly doors’ raised up after it was left in the street.
It’s currently unknown what happened to the car between then and now, but the keys now belong to YouTube content creator Henry Arnold.
Arnold can be seen in a recent video reading our newspaper coverage of the vehicle’s shady past, informing his fans to always obtain a vehicle check.
With more than 23,000 subscribers, Henry hopes to bring the car back to its former glory, stripping it of its purple wrap and fixing all of its damage.
Recent statistics show that 96 per cent of users would use the force’s online services again, 94 per cent said all of their tasks had been completed and 88 per cent said the online services were easy to use.
Those who are pressed for time, hard of hearing or can’t talk freely can visit the dedicated web chat page or click the green button in the bottom right corner of any page on the force’s website to start a chat with a specialist operator.
“As normality continues to return for the public, the same is true for policing”, said Det Supt Branston.
“Cambridgeshire Police should not be retreating behind locked doors.
“Online or phone access are not always appropriate and is a further weakening of community engagement.
“Any savings now could be illusory if the police become less effective and legitimate as a result. If elected, I shall restore a walk-in service.”
The police ‘surgeries’ will be available for members of the public seeking non-crime advice or to report crime, at different locations each week.
