Garda Rapid Response Unit, Moyvane, Co. Kerry, 1980’s. Apart from “Ah sure, it’ll be grand”, give them a slogan. (Pic from RareIrishStuff on Twitter)

  1. Á mate of mine who is a Garda told me that they ordered the heaters be taken out of those cars so the lads wouldn’t be tempted to sit in them instead of doing their duty.

  2. In the late 80’s i witnessed the Gardaì round up and corral a number of motorbike hooligans tearing up the Ballybunion golf course. Their only weapon – the Renault 4. It was like watching Bruce Lee vs Giant Haystacks but the Renault 4 crashed those fuckers straight into the bunkers. The bikes had no legs in the sand and the gards clobbered them into the back of their very slow cars. Respect where respect is due
