Simon, I've had a look at the other images you've kindly put up and am still not convinced by the car's lines, it doesn't have an "integrity" about it but is a mishmash of pre-WW2 themes by GN, for example the additional "hips" and unnecessarily large spats round the rear wheels. And those rear corners look really vulnerable. ..
The radiator aperture is straight off a Fox & Nichols car, to my eyes slightly (very?) Incongruous
