London Show Car 1953 DHC Pininfarina

I see that one of the lovely P4 Pininfarina DHC's is for sale in The Automobile (NHF800). Confusingly it is describes as a "90" , but the period descriptions say it was a 75 that was built for the 1953 Earls Court Show.
The DVLA descriptions confuse matters even more! The car is described as first registered in May 1964 & fitted with 2625cc engine; the MOT's call it a Rover 110! Possibly it has been "up-engined" in it's past and this has confused the system.
It only appears to have covered ~27000 miles (13000 since 2006) although it appears to have travelled widely overseas to Rallies etc. It is photographed in an Alpine setting.
It is a wonderful looking car...I wish I had room in my garage and (probably) deep enough pockets! A great opportunity to own a super looking car.
