Thats a bit what they are like up here, they have nothing to do, so just run around and try to get you for anything they possibly can.
Cunts, tbh.

LOL, depends which copper you get. I work a lot with the Police 90% are really nice and I have a lot of time for them but then 10% are ego-tripping, power mad loons (usually the newbies).
You got the bad ones LOL , be warned though, they COULD have done you and glad you only got a warning.
Wish i'd have only got a warning after driving home after 3 pints of Stella

engine cuts out after the time set on the timer, 2 mins in this case so it lets the turbo cool down.

I wouldnt run the turbo timer myself for 2mins, you wont do it no good, 1 min max!!! all you will end up doing is getting it hotter.

i thought if the handbrake was released when running a turbo timer (may be certain types) the engine cut out anyway as a security feature? My mate had one in his starlet gt turbo and this is what happend when you released it in his when the turbo timer was running its course
