If your Office is in your home and you have no visitors or employees concerned with your employment why would you need a no smoking policy ITS your home.
If however you Meet with people from work for business reasons in that office then your office would need to be a smoke free office as it would affect others.
if your car is a company car and you are its only user at work with no work related passengers you can smoke in it if your company policy allows you to. if others are likely to use the car for company business as passengers or drivers then you would need to put a no smoking sign in place as others would be affected (just as driving instructors are required to do)

The regs for cars are different in different parts of the UK, for example in Scotland you cannot smoke in a company car regardless of use,

This is quite simply wrong!!!

Private cars (company or otherwise) are not caught by the legislation!!
