But am uneasy that bumper is big enough for genuine XK140 (which also usually had great big over-riders capable of disembowelling any farm animals encountered on country lanes) - here's one without them for comparison - Link to "jagxk.com" - with visible bolt holes. So this bumper's wrong, but other bits look OK - is that enough to condemn it as a replica??

Noted from the Nostalgia Cars link that their sidelights are too low/close to the bumper position, so this is someone else's replica, probably US for location. Result - I think this is XK 140 Replica by unknown US firm who provide XK 120-style bumpers and hope no-one notices.
