This car looks ridiculous on these aftermarket replica 15 inch D type look alike wheels.
The original 667032 an XK120DHC despatched to Newsome in Coventry was certainly registered [OHP625]
It would be interesting to know the interim history on the car and how it came to be registered [DLC884] before being then presumably reassigned the original rego number.
With a 4.2 litre engine etc the roadster body on the 120DHC chassis I would be looking very carefully at the original chassis number stamping to see exactly what this car is or was.
If anyone can provide good photos of chassis number stamping, pics of ID plate I can give a better picture.

Trying too hard. When they have finished the posing in this drophead, I mean roadster, perhaps they might car to inflate the tyres properly ?
