Or, we should say, having one drafted into duty for it. Because this new addition to Finland's highway patrol was selected by the public. Of all the people or public entities and of all the cars, the readers of the country's Takniikan Maailma chose the Finnish police the most deserving of a new CLS Shooting Brake - specifically a 350 CDI with the 3.0-liter turbodiesel V6 churning out 262 horsepower and 457 lb-ft of torque. Which may not be enough to catch a Koenigsegg wandering over the border from Sweden, but should be enough to intercept the average Volvo or Saab.
