In some cases these cars are re manufactured. They are put back through the factory and given new parts. They are basically rebuilt on the line. Armegeddon's AU went through this program. So while it may have been thrased, all those thrased parts are now brand new. So I don't see a problem. If he got it cheaply and its been remnaufactured then he got a great deal.
Welcome to the forums. Theres a few people with Ex Pursuit cars on these forums and they all seem to be happy with them. I believe AU3 Chaser, but its a 6. I think JC's XR8 may have been an ex cop car as well.
Not sure who to ask for specific details. Casper would be a good person to ask. Other than that, don't really know. There will be some people who know.

What a load of ИИИИ... They are not rebuilt in any way, they are sent to the auctions with new tyres and brake pads, then sold off to dealers and or the public.. Just because Ford advertise them as Factory backed, that means nothing, all that means is that they have gone through Fords quality checklist, had 4 new tyres fitted to them and a service.. In no way are they put back near the factory...

One of our mates had a blue AU XR8 ex NSW and drove the *** out of it for 60,000 kays, it never missed a beat, the only thing wrong with it was the paint..
