You are correct. That is a lovely car in a great colour, I would however change the number-plates immediately

£65,000 in bills in the last twenty years! It’s a bargain - buy the car that’s been restored not the one needing restoring.

One of my concerns with things like this is replica early cars made in the 60's and 70's. With no paperwork or history is this even real?

That looks incredibly primitive for 1908.  The Silver Ghost was a couple of years into production by then.

Am I right in thinking SIII continued alongside the XJ40 because the XJ40 couldn't accommodate the V12?

It did indeed continue alongside for a while, until the xj40 was extensively reengineered, under Ford ownership, and the xj81 (iirc) was the result. The V12 was then an option for the last couple of years of the XJ40 shape, prior to X300 introduction, where it remained available. Love them!

Some brands managed to carry on until the mid-1910s! They were mostly rather outdated looking cars indeed, although some later models had pneumatic tyres and foldable tops.

The Louwman museum has a few wonderful original high wheelers in their collection! https://www.louwmanmuseum.nl/en/car/chase-highweeler-delivery-van/

I think there's a shovel-load of wishful thinking bordering on bullshit going on there; there's no sign of any transmission at all, suggesting it's a horse-drawn buggy that someone half-converted.
