 letting him go soon as they see he is dressed like a murder/gunman...that and the ingrained grease under finger nails.

Don't forget that the thieving gits look on here and other forums forums for vehicles to nick and if there is someone bitching about being stopped it might make them think again about operating in that area. I would rather be stopped and have a polite q&a with plod than have an irate q&a with plod about why my Discovery isn't parked where I left it.

Unfortunately the coppers on the street are only carrying out instructions from their bosses. If it is target motorist week then they get it and so on

I think this is a case when we need to be supportive of them. Like others have said they are looking for things like bust locks, broken windows or known pikeys. If they dont do the odd "pull over" then there is no chance to catch them in the act, if someone had thier car returned before they even knwo it was knicked, they would be very pleased no doubt.

Re being pulled twice, thats a pain, but no doubt a sympton of a crackdown on 4x4's being nicked (A good thing) one issue we face as a society is about police recording, people get arsey about details beign logged when they get pulled over and are innoccnt, but then multiple pull overs etc eiter happen or cant be recorded. Same for stop and search for Balck/Asian people, if its not recorded you cant prove you have been repeadedly pulled, but then there are issues about lots of stop/seach history being somehow making an individual "susspicious" (Almost as in "known to the police"). Its a tough one to crack.
