A ‘filthy’ Mercedes that made off from police in Didcot was found five miles away in Culham.  

Pictures showed the sporty A-class, complete with a rear spoiler and two sets of twin exhausts, reverse parked in a marked car parking bay.  

Officers said the white hatchback had failed to stop for officers in the Didcot area. It was found later on Friday night in Culham, a distance of around five miles.  

The alleged driver of the vehicle had been arrested and the mud-spattered Mercedes seized, police said.
