Should they spec it, the sat-nav screen has also been tinkered with to include a mobile data terminal to provide police with any information they need while on duty.
It usually takes six months for GM UK Special Vehicles to bring a car like this to market, but the engineers were able to accelerate development as the Astra is being manufactured in the UK.
Last year, Vauxhall sold more than 900 Astras to the police.
