The Met had an ancient Transit incident unit thing in the 1990s.
It had a kind of cockpit thing on the roof, I guess for crowd observation or something.
It was a very old 1970s MK1

Remember seeing them around when I was a kid. This was Hackney in the late seventies so 'crowd control' was a regular weekend event back then.

I guess it would be expensive to buy and probably did minuscule miles - driving from a police garage to footy matches or protests.
So, no reason why you'd not get 20-30 years service out of it.
