Famous for its cross-eyed squint courtesy of the reversed VW Beetle headlamps, which were used as a way to allow the leading edge of the front wings to be forward of the radiator, thus providing space to incorporate a front splitter (providing much needed downforce) during the extensive wind tunnel testing at MIRA
The decision not to have pods (headlights) on the new Morgan was taken during the time that they were using Plus 8 development cars and I think there was a Yellow Plus 8 that had Porsche lights fitted! The choice of headlights was very much a question of what was available at the time, initially I believe that BMW were thinking about Morgan using the Cooper S lights, but decided against it as they wanted their own model to be the first to launch these lights.
