So is it free tax as a historic vehicle or is it free tax as a police car?

I remember these from my late teens when I had motor bikes. We had a few laughs back in those days, playing cat and mouse 
Our local Bobby in Edinburgh used to drive one, knickname 'Smiler', a great guy. The bike 'gang' would often meet in the carpark behind my parents house, and if he passed by, he would always stop for a chat, while at the same time checking out tax discs and tyres 
Oh happy days...

Shame they dont run 1800vvc engines in them and use them as effective 'street sleeper' police.
Nova boy speeds past laughing - until the Minor pulls him over at 110.

He states in that report 'Even those who aren't speeding slow down to have a look'
Is going slower and having a nosey at an attraction on the other side of the road really that much safer than going faster and watching whats on the road in front of you?
