Image 6 was the best for me. It's a 147 Alfa in Metallic Light Blue
registration BV02 OCM, definitely five door - you can see the darker
inset handles on the image just above the rear lights. Looks like a
Lusso judging by the wheels. Identical to the following advert...

Now go back to the police and tell them to do their job!

Some places where name and address info would be bad are cars visiting
companies also frequented by people like animal rights protesters, also
places like addiction clinics for people who go there, or maybe in some
communities going to the wrong place of worship. I don't think the last
is a problem in this country.

The animal rights lot can be a real problem. My office is on the same
trading park as a lab. I think they've learned now that not everyone who
leaves the trading park works there and needs hassling. Still, we have
to wait on our cycles at the traffic lights at the exit while they
shout/chant/wave video cameras at you. How can we do our jobs with a
clear conscience they ask? Well, coding Java doesn't seem too bad. I can
no longer claim to be cruel to the mouse tied up on my desk as I have a
trackball now.

I'd check your system date and time if I were you.

There's a pretty good likeness to the back
of this Alfa Romeo 147 T Spark Lusso, which
fits with BV 02 OCM as others have suggested :
