Its an Ulster style special and I strongly suspect it's 1937 and not 1927 as the chassis looks to me to be a LWB with Ruby wheels. The bonnet and scuttle are elongated to allow for the longer chassis.

One question I would ask is have you seen the registration document, and what's the provenance of the car, for example what is it based on, who built it and when. 

Get someone who knows Austin Sevens to look at and assess the car.

Many A7 specials that come on the market are ridiculously overpriced, particularly those on the continent.

Caveat emptor.
Look more carefully at the wheels; they appear to be 16" to me. Who am I to get involved? My Ulsteroid has 15" wheels!
