1958 Jaguar C-Type replica

I took this photograph in the paddock at the Vintage Sports Car Club's meeting at Donington Park in May 2001.
It's a Jaguar C-Type, and although I can't find out any details about this particular car it appears to be a replica. The DVLA record (if the registration number still belongs to this car) says that it's a 1958 blue Jaguar with a 3,442cc engine. The C-Type was only produced from 1951 to 1953, so it looks like it's been created from a 1958 Jaguar XK150. Several manufacturers have produced these replica models, most notably Proteus and Lynx, and many of these are indistinguishable from the original cars. The 'LS' in the registration number indicates that it was registered in Dundee.
