Surely that's a Ford Classic?

Yes it is, so I've given you the point because I'm sure you would have given the same answer as mekubb's if I'd seen your post in time.

The base car is quite obvious, so that is an easy given point to be honest into my humble opinion ..)) Nothing personal by the way !

A batch of 17 Ford Classic Estates were produced in Nairobi by Ford main dealer, Hughes Ltd, for the Kenya Police.  Do they have anything to do with this car?

Those cars have been a previous puzzle.
I must be right - that's what it says on Wikipedia

Yes, but once the car has been identified as a Ford Classic it's clearly an Estate car; I know it might not have been a mock-up but that's really the main part of the answer.

A batch of 17 Ford Classic Estates were produced in Nairobi by Ford main dealer, Hughes Ltd, for the Kenya Police.  Do they
 have anything to do with this car?

This is nothing at all do with those cars, which were puzzled here:
