dodgy tank photos

This is on Oz ebay. I don't want anyone to bid on this, just thought I'd post it for information purposes. It is claiming to be ww2 photos of 18 tanks when it is clearly not.
Obviously taken in a museum post war ( anyone know which one? ) and then doctored on a computer and fancy printer.

Just annoyed me so I had to tell people.

It has to be Bovington Tank Museum as far as i know they are the only museum in the world with a Porsche Turret King tiger

just noticed the also have a British heavy Tank `Tortoise` there as well definately bovington tank museum and it means that the photos were taken after 1947 as the tortise only just finished its test trials then .

Thanks for the info James. I reckon the photos are from at least the 1980's or 1990's.
Have any of our UK friends been to Bovington lately? Does the layout look familiar?

Definately Bovington but possibly 1960's. That layout was from some time ago, the M4(105) was outside for years until put into store several years ago. These obviously pre-date that.
