It can't do that  PNC check would only look at insurance and Tax/Mot + anything added to the local area hotlist Think they wanted to tug you and needed an excuse if they couldnt find anything.
Been pulled over twice this year so far, one for a bit to quick in a 30 but on my way, second was new years day, breathalized and sent on my way.

Use to get the same in the corsa mate but could understand that as the tints were dark and it was noisey etc.
Not been stopped in the golf for over a year though
I reckon they're trying to up their stop and search targets before year end

I've been pulled once, that was on New Years eve at 2am so thats understandable.
Not bad considering my car looks a bit boy racer-esque.

I've been pulled over 3 times in the corsa
Once because they thought I looked like someone who steals cars 
Once for a random spot check
Another because I went through town and I wasn't supposed to apparently

The only time I got pulled over was when I drove up Cookham high street on my 50cc Aprilia at 50mph when I was 16. The copper just told me off and said it would piss him off if he had to clean me off the front of a bus that night

I've been pulled once in my 6 years+ of driving. For having fogs on when it was foggy
He gave me a speel about how even though it was foggy there has to be a set level of visual impairment, in metres, before you can turn them on.
I was choking to say to him 'no problem officer next time I'll stop and get out my tape measure for you, you stupid prick'
