if they have reason to believe you are concealing something then yes they can look in there.

Depends on the situation really, had you been pulled over? Do you have a record?

If you get out of your car and lock it the police must obtain a search warrent in order to look inside your car.

As far as i know they are only allowed a visual check of your car, if you dont want them to look inside or under the bonnet they cant.

They must have reasonable grounds to do so, which is normally drugs or possibly terrorism these days.

Either way, the registered keeper of the car must consent. Useful if its in the wifes name for tax purposes

It depends or the circumstances when/why they searched, as to what powerws they had. There is no way of answering your question until i know this
