I don't believe it is illegal, as long as you don't have your keys in the ignition with the intention of starting the engine.
If you are sleeping in your own vehicle then you cannot be charged, that is what a traffic officer told me a few years ago.
There appears to be a number of grey areas on the matter but unless the police believe that you may drive off whilst drunk there is little they can do.
He clearly didn't want to go back to his car. Possibly because he was due to meet someone.
I agree. If he wanted to sit/kip in his 2 seater he would not have turned into Brentgovel and chose Hughes in the first place. Its irrelevant whether it is illegal or not anyway but I believe not.
