It is illegal if the vehicle is a working vehicle (it's counted as a place of work and covered by the smoking ban then) such as a Mini cab.
You can also (I believe) be charged for driving without due care and attention. A law which covers anything that may take your attention from the road (including Mobile Phone use which pretty much renders the law on Mobile phone use in cars pointless).
