This car has been owned by a Norwegian living in Istanbul, then went to Romania and is now back in Norway, it's different and a little Aeroesque.

These pictures are from a Morgan group I belong to on F/B and I guess they are library pictures of the same car but in different countries. There was another one with Norwegian plates on it.

I like the look of it. But then I thought the Aero 1 looked great from the front.

I was told by Uncle Melvyn that these lights come from a 911 Porsche.
They were used on some of the development cars like Big Blue, and others, but outside of that were used only on the "factory hack/s" of which this car was originally one. I believe Melvyn may have a couple of spares in his treasure trove.

Andy - that's interesting information on these cars, apart from big blue I didn't know of any others like Martin said.
Dave - I'm not convinced about the look either.

I don't dislike the look..actually I like it. Clearly the love child of an affair between a Plus 8 and an Aero.....
More importantly, such a fitting might help allow the trads to meet pedestrian front impact regulations.
If they are from a 911 then it is also probable they give a lot more light than teh 7" Lucas units....
