I've also been told that the Police used the S60 T5 as a rapid response car as they were so quick - but not this particular example. Private owners only.
The S60R and only briefly. The brakes weren't up to the job of high speed pursuit and response work and the pads would catch fire. It was easier to replace them with the Octavia VRs than modify the Volvo's brakes.

The T5 and the R are great cars, I love 'em.
