That kind of puts a dampener on actually using them if you have to ship them across several counties. I suppose you might be able to come to an agreement with the local scrotes not to go out on the rob apart from nights the force has the dog they share.

Why do the Police (or for that matter the Army) not have top of the line body armour, vehicles, radios and equipment in general?

The answer of course is money. There isn't an endless pit of it and priorities and compromises have to be made somewhere.

How often does this happen?

Some will say once is once too many but being realistic would you want every force to spend hundreds of thousands of pounds on vehicles that would rarely be used to cover the remote possibility of this happening again?

Bloody liberal. We don't like your sort round here.
