why a 600 ?
i agree that 2 hyabusa's would be the right tools for the job cos you hit a proper traffic jam to stop the following cars then outrun the helicopter

Then a member of the public opens his car door as you filter in between
A bike would be the worst getaway vehicle eva.

Yeah, by far the worst
You can get inbetween cars, not get stuck in traffic, past bollards, down pedestrianised streets, through woods, over fields, down alleys......the list is endless.

And how exactly would you hold the crown jewels whilst weaving in and out of traffic. I agree, worst getaway vehicle IN THIS CASE.

600, becasue youve more than enough power to outrun any cop car and there still pritty nimble.
Id stick with the cossie though, old school crime car. My dads mate trainned police drivers and said back the early 90's. If they were chasing a car an saw it was a cossie they new they had no chance

Although 3 Mini Coopers would be probably more fun, but with 3 x the congestion charges

first off i'd use the beemer that was on top gear, take it on the getaway route before hand to show it where to go, do the job run out and jump in and let it drive off. i would of chose a route where i'd go under a bridge so we could jump out and onto our awaiting gixer thou's to which we go our seperate ways, while the car drives off on the planned route. Sorted.
Then I laugh like an Evil genius and go and spend my money in Columbia.

Love Cossies, but they don't exactly set the pace en masse these days.
