Silly question but do US dramas use older Police cars, I have seen this one a few times, UK Police dramas do sometimes at least update their cars |

Yes, the Crown Victoria ran from 1998-2011 with minimal changes. Sometimes we see a 1998 model in a new movie. Depends on the budget and what is available for rent/purchase. |

Yes, they have been very slow to transition to newer models. A lot of times they buy actual retired police cars, then when they get too old, they transition them into taxicabs. It's not just Crown Vics that are seen, but early Charger Pursuit models, fire trucks, ambulances. |

It's good they want to use actual police vehicles. The downside is the years wait for them to hit the used car market. |

Makes we wonder if tv show/movies could just buy new police vehicles directly from the manufacturers. |
