Found - it's a Swallow Gadabout - "A number of [Swallow] Gadabouts were used by various police forces. This picture of PC Wilf Chesters with JAC 401 was taken in the north of Warwickshire - note the lack of protective clothing or headgear." - http://www.doretti.co.uk/scooter/gallery-3.htm and http://www.doretti.co.uk/scooter/pics/z-pc-chesters-2.jpg .
