I honestly think the only thing we're all going to be in need of this entire winter, is one of these;
(or ok, joking aside, something like this);

I briefly had a 2002 one about 2 years ago. The certainly have a stigma attached, used to get pulled all the time in it.

Apparently all you need is a new exhaust manifold to get rid of that awful tractor sound they make.

The sound is the only thing i actually like about them. Styled by Stevie Wonder in the early 90's i think.

Yeah, you need one with equal length runners. I like that noise though

I had a quick spin in a Tommy Kaira edition I was going to buy last year, it was drokking quick! The bloke messed me about though and I didn't buy it, but I would love a scooby.

Same with old Golfs I think, second day of owning mine I was stood on the curb watching 2 officers turfing everything out my car as they thought they could smell weed

then when they didn't find anything they left me to put everything back in

Just waste their time as much as you do theirs. Most seem to be very loose with what they consider reasonable suspicion and most love the idea of a search but aren't so keen on following the correct protocol.
Make them jump every hoop and fill out all the paperwork, then bin the paperwork in front of them. I wonder how many of you have been searched and not been given a thing, let alone given a valid reason for a search, shown a warrant card, told your rights, etc. Most seem to say something along the lines of "we're just going to take a look in your car for anything you shouldn't have" and begin to get on with it. "Erm... hold on a second officer, you're forgetting something"...
