how bad is the spelling in that 
yes he can report you - yes he can send someone round - and yes he will be on the look out for ya when he is on duty
do u normally stop for strangers in cars flashing there lights?

He didn't mention an unmarked Police vehicle... just a random Volvo.

The blue flashing lights cost £5 from car accessory shops, the siren probably not much more. It could still be anyone.

If it was one off duty copper and he hadnt recorded any evidence then he can do absolutely nothing.
Im 90% sure that is correct!

...but surely then he could only get cautioned.
Unless he was known for driving like a tw@ before.
Dont forget he was driving a MICRA !

Anyone can take your plates etc and put in a complaint about your driving, just more likely to have something done about it if it's a copper who makes the complaint. 
Prob right though, he can't be done if it's just one guy, but the cops will now know who your mate is and to keep an eye on him.
