Mine was a 100% big white police transit van with a dock off camera pointing out of its side.

If they have to record me for 5 secs or something then I think I am perfectly fine as this girl was giving it the beans just infront of me.

I am assuming the copper hasnt got a jealous hatred for dear car drivers (09 s2000) and picked on me instead of the girl in the punto ahead.

Day3 no post!

I got done at 55mph on the M40 in a 50mph zone.

No points so went to a speed awareness course and got a little lecture.

If you already have points then good luck

Hopefully it was an ANPR van looking for untaxed vehicles. You should be O.K., unless you've no tax of course.

They would wait till the last minute to send judging by how they usually do things.

Depends how their war on speed is going this week. You could end up with 3 months in jail or something...

Should be fine mate, although from your description, were you overtaken by a punto?

They'll probably confiscate all your assets under the Proceeds of Crime Act and send you to Guantanamo Bay, then.
