Who''d want to be a cop? ME ME ME

Italy's top policeman gets sleek new James Bond-style super car

Italy's top policeman has picked up the keys to his new squad car - a Lamborghini fitted with a fridge to store severed body parts, gun racks and Wi-fi internet.

Famed for hunting down Mafia dons, Antonio Manganelli, the head of Italy's state police, took delivery of the 200mph Gallardo LP560-4 last week.

Lamborghini designers managed to squeeze in an array of high-tech crime-fighting equipment into their sleek new supercar.

The motor is equipped with a video recording system that wirelessly transmits back to the station in real time.

It features the usual array of gun racks and radio equipment and is supplemented by a cooler in the front compartment that can be used to transport severed limbs and digits to the local hospital. The finishing touch is a heart defibrillator.

The £150,000 Gallardo is the third car Lamborghini has delivered to the country's stylish police but the first dedicated to just one lucky officer.

The 5.2-litre V10 has 560 horsepower, speeds from 0-60 mph in 3.7 seconds and hits a top speed of 204mph.
