Very little information has been found for the GTS1 police vehicles purchased by the Tasmanian police. Forum.r31skylineclub.com has a couple of images on display including original articles which confirm that six vehicles were purchased. Initially, it was thought that these vehicles were additional to the batch of 200 civilian vehicles, however, two ex-police vehicles have come up in recent years, being numbered 151 and 159. This would indicate they were part of the batch of 200 cars.
Attached are several original images courtesy of the Tasmanian Police History Museum.

This 2003 Volvo S60R was advertised on Facebook Marketplace in September 2022, asking $20,000 at the time. It has very low Ks for the age (85,000), and the seller notes that they are the second owner. The seller noted It was last serviced on the 19/09/2022 at Volvo Cars Five Dock, where it has been serviced most of its life (previously Trivett Volvo and Volvo Cars Sydney). All original too. Had a wheel alignment carried out prior too and had the transmission fluid replaced a couple of months prior.
Very few of these S60Rs around, and prices have certainly shot up in recent years. See the original listing here on Facebook marketplace. If you've got one, please sign up and add yours to Classic Register, so we can keep track of these modern classic Volvos as they become increasingly rare.
