The [[SUV]] was a converted large, black [[Range Rover Vogue]] with dark-tinted windows and blue lights running along the A pillars. The vehicle had a white-on-black non-standard typeface for the registration plate, usually found only on military vehicles and vehicles from before [[1973]]. Despite having a registration number, ''CF06 FDU'', which indicated that the vehicle was registered in Cardiff between [[March]] and [[September]] [[2006]], the car did not appear in the DVLA vehicle register; ([[TV]]: ''[[Everything Changes]]'') like its owners, the SUV officially didn't exist. The boot was large enough to fit a full-sized body, such as a [[Weevil]] or an [[alien]] [[blowfish]].

The SUV was, presumably, used by the Torchwood team when they went for a drink or something to eat. ([[TV]]: ''[[Cyberwoman]]'') On [[Countrycide|another mission]], the Torchwood team were in the country when the car was stolen because the keys were left inside. It was driven off with most of their gear still inside, and was found parked 3.4 miles away in a town. ([[TV]]: ''[[Countrycide]]'') Torchwood also contacted [[Kathy Swanson]], a member of the [[Cardiff]] Police force, who helped Torchwood track down [[Suzie Costello|Suzie]] when she took [[Gwen Cooper|Gwen]] hostage. ([[TV]]: ''[[They Keep Killing Suzie]]'') The SUV was at the scene of [[Eugene Jones|Eugene Jones' death]] and, unknown to them, Eugene was one of the only members of the public to see inside the SUV when his disembodied conciousness rode along with them in an empty seat. ([[TV]]: ''[[Random Shoes]]'') The SUV was used to transport, release and chase [[Janet (Everything Changes)|Janet]] through Cardiff. ([[TV]]: ''[[Combat]]'') When [[Toshiko Sato|Tosh]] and [[Jack Harkness|Jack]] went to investigate an abandoned dance hall, they were taken through the rift, and the SUV was left behind. [[Gwen Cooper|Gwen]] later found it.

When a blowfish stole a sports car, Torchwood gave chase in the SUV. Owen opened the window and leaned out, firing a gun at the car's wheels. Jack left the team behind, to find [[John Hart (Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang)|John Hart]]. He later used it to catch up to a member of Cell 114, barely managing to stop him from detonating nuclear missiles by running him over with the car. ([[TV]]: ''[[Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang]]'') Torchwood Three later used it to investigate a crashed lorry with alien [[meat]] inside. ([[TV]]: ''[[Meat (TV story)|Meat]]'') When Torchwood walked into a booby-trapped building, the SUV was stolen by John Hart ([[TV]]: ''[[Fragments (TV story)|Fragments]]''), who returned it after the deaths of [[Owen Harper]] and [[Toshiko Sato]].

The Torchwood SUV could also change the traffic lights so that they were green before the vehicle reached them. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Slow Decay]]'') Even with its bulky size and great weight, the vehicle was capable of catching up with a sports car. ([[TV]]: ''[[Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang]]'') Underneath the boot of the SUV, there was a [[Torchwood build-up Gun|hidden, disassembled gun]].

Other features on the SUV included rocket boosters and the ability to transform itself into a boat. The latter feature had not been tested before Ianto Jones and Jack Harkness used it during a mission. The SUV promptly sank. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Sin Eaters]]'') The boot was able to automatically open and close itself. This feature was used to to release [[Janet (Everything Changes)|Janet]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[Combat]]'') The license plate number was "CF06 FDU", and only appeared on the rear of the vehicle.{{fact}} It could also jam telephone lines within an unknown number of miles. | Other features on the SUV included rocket boosters and the ability to transform itself into a boat.
