That vid is oldschool... lol...
I dunno what the cop was driving, but the guy who he was chasing was ain a Lotus Omega... It was built in conjunction with Opel and Lotus as was the rival to the BMW M5 at the time... It's a twin turbo (twin T25's) 3.6L V6 making 377HP through a 6spd gearbox ala Corvette ZR-1...

Hahaha Yeah, that again, is a pursuit here in Sweden. The cops where probably driving a slightly tuned Volvo V70 2.4T or a Saab 95 2.3T, that's the most common. Whe don't have any real highpower cop cars, but some probably have round 300 hp. The Police won't tell us 
I believe i have read that it wasn't that stock. I think that one has about 400-500 hp. Thats what I think I have read about it. Not sure

because of the extra weight the cop cars carry on here (computers and other electronic gear and useful stuff) most cars have gone thru a slight tune of the suspension. But as you mentioned, this car was probably not tuned in the engine. If you've ever driven a Saab 95 2.3T or Volvo V70 2.4T you probably know that they are'nt racing cars. I had a V70 2.4T a year ago and that I maxed a few times and I believe the speed up to 200 is very much alike mine.
And the cop cars with around 300 hp are not that many and they serve mostly as highwaypatrol.
