I need some hellp please!!!!

some coppers just love to throw their weight around don't they. Would be better off without some of them. Hope it all gets dropped and they leave you alone. As for how you should talk to them, considering how some coppers talk to the general public (fing and blinding) just being polite to them is bloody hard work.

Regarding further action, did they give you any reason to expect further punishment? As if you were under the speed limit then that isn't a worry, and "your tyres were making a noise" is shaky ground for any other charge.
What were you doing? Repeatedly lapping the roundabouts or what?

I think I would be contacting a brief. Would this sort of thing be within the remit of legal cover given with the car insurance if there is any?

I thought they do my mate got one for doing some long ass burnout next to a copper but it stated that with the 59 on his record next time the vehicle would be confiscated. Dunno, anyway I'd definitely contend it 50mph limit - no one about and in a mini of all cars one of the best handling go carty cars I'd guess you were very probably in control (unless you're telling us porkies i.e they were infact mini roundabouts or something)
