Upholstery cleaner on all seats and soak the headliner, remove ashtray and soak in washing up liquid and clean all inside the ashtray slot, then use standard interior trim cleaner on all the plastics. You may have to use upholstery cleaner on the carpets too but the smell does go, believe me!

Hire a rug doctor from morrisons and get rid of any ashtrays that may have had fag ash in. New mats? Bicarbonate of soda in a little pot as this helps soak the smells up.

I purchased my golf from a serial smoker , so I got some aerasol spray fabreeze , covered the seats headlining door cards ect ect every time I got in and out the car and by time the can was empty the smell was gone ,

P.s clean the steering wheel ! 99% will be I the wheel and where their hands touch .
