Actually, this is
allmost what a real Hurricane Mk.I looks like, the propeller spinner is the wrong shape. It is R4118, while most of the plane was rebuilt using the original bits, the constant speed propeller had to be rebuilt from scratch. It seems to be based on the longer spinner from a Mk.II Hurricane, but made pointed to resemble a de Haviland spinner. There are no flying Hurricane or Sea Hurricane Mk.I today that has the correct spinner.
The correct shape of the de Haviland spinner can be seen is this photo:
