im sure they didn't find you ''for having an exhaust on your car'' as every car has to have one..i'm sure its a legal/mot requirement? lol. please be more specific?

lol, your just doing everything right 
They can't fine you for having a none standard exhaust, do you mean you put a new backbox on it or what ? Even so... they can't fine you for that, can they ?

Was pulled over a few times last year, tints, loud exhaust etc. Just been polite and they've let me go. Funniest was a drug search though, but they never checked the passenger seat tray (not that i had anything mind you)
JM- I've found traffic cops to be nicer than normal coppers 
Goodie - What is wrong with your exhaust for them to fine you? Mine is loud as fcuk and still no fine just plenty headaches...

We had a sound traffic cop the other day in Lee's car...
Cop - "Next time you throw it round a roundabout mate, make sure there isn't a police volvo the other side"
Lee - "Noted"

My cousin got pulled in his Astra lastnight for racing a Clio. The Clio was being driven by an off duty traffic cop.
The copper got him to pull over, and sat in his car. He told my cousin that changing lanes while going round blue bridge corner at 90MPH is not a good idea, and next time he should stay in one lane.
