Nice black car. Presumably you might be youngish so they are just checking if you may have stolen it. Don't take it personally. I was once pulled over by cop car in residential area. They said its a random check but they definitely checked me out for age/profile and asked if it was my car (at that time a 200SX, standard apart from a gorgeous meguiars waxed look and nice 18s). They werent rude, just matter of fact. I see it as if you had your GTI stolen, you'd probably want that cop to be checking on it like the way he did.

PPQ say not to use any covers on their plates or the warranty is invalid. I think they say this so we leave them unprotected and have to replace them $$$ when they get damaged as I've had mine since 1997 and always had the altrex plate frames on them and they still look like new.
Or he was doing his job, given that no-one knows exactly what transpired between the OP and the police or if the police had reports of a car matching the OP's involved in something or a car that matched the OP's was stolen earlier or if the number plate caught a bad angle and flashed the officer. Easy to try and guess that it was for some untoward reason he pulled the OP over but he would have had his reasons.Just thought it could've been jealousy or something. Copper needs to find something constructive to do.

If the dealer is fitting unroadworthy components to a brand new car then IT IS their responsibility.

No it's not. I find it hard to believe that so many people know so little about the law with regards to the operation of a motor vehicle.
The driver alone is responsible for making sure his car is roadworthy before he drives it. It doesn't matter if the car is yours, a friends, a rental or a work car. If you drive it and the car is found to be unroadworthy it's your responsibility.
