I am told smoking is not allowed in my (leased) co car, even during
private use.

Many leasing companies imposed that long before the smoking ban,
because it made the cars impossible to sell on afterwards without
a lot of work. I know of one person who ignored this and got a
bill for around 5 grand at the end of the lease which the employer
deducted from his salary, and refused him a company car afterwards
because he tried arguing out of it (unsuccessfully).

It doesn't take 5 grand to valet a car so there is no trace left of it
being smoked in. Unless of course there are fag burns everywhere.
FWIW, the most stinky car I ever bought (at auction, cheaply) had been
used to carry dogs around. Ones which have been used to carry kids -
throwing up and spilling things - can be pretty bad too.
