Aston Martin now part of Dubai Police fleet

Car features a custom ‘77’ number plate with a reason

- Gulf News Report

The Aston Martin Vantage has officially joined the internatio­nally acclaimed Dubai Police fleet, dressed in full livery and flashing lights. The agile, performanc­e-driven Vantage will be seen on Dubai’s roads alongside an enviable collection of sports and supercars used to service the police force and drive public engagement.

Expert Major General Khalil Ebrahim Al Mansouri, Assistant Commander-in-Chief for Criminal Investigat­ion Affairs, received a detailed handover of the vehicle in the presence of a number of senior officers. Maj. Gen. Al Mansouri praised the close co-operation with Aston Martin Lagonda Limited - Mena, and explained that through adding supercars within its fleet of luxury patrol vehicles, Dubai Police enhances the security presence of police officers during internatio­nal events and across important tourist destinatio­ns.

Aston Martin has been present in the UAE for more than 50 years, and now this collaborat­ive effort between its Mena team and Dubai Police only stands to strengthen its presence alongside its flagship dealership­s in Dubai and the capital, home to the marque’s full range of celebrated sports cars and new SUV.

The Dubai Police Vantage features a custom ‘77’ number plate, the number 7 a nod to the UAE’s seven emirates as well as the British marque’s long-standing associatio­n with the world’s most famous secret agent, James Bond – just in time for the release of the highly anticipate­d No Time to Die movie next month.
