Rover P4 "JET"

Driving home this morning I was gobsmacked to find myself following another top-down enthusiast - this one being a Rover. A P4, identical to “JET1” which I gather is in the London science museum. Reg no. was JET 698 which is shown on DVLA as a 1952 Rover with an engine size of 3500cc - so it must be a replica of some sort built on a 1952 chassis.

Fantastic looking car - anyone know 'owt about this particular replica, which must have cost a huge amount to create?

It was done on the TV show Chop Shop for Jules Holland

Zut alors - Jools’ French brother ?
