Saw another one on vortex. From this year apparently. Don't have any more pictures I'm afraid.

that's more like a vento conversion with modified vento lights

If you look closely the lights are mk2 units. Looks like they have been attached to a modified Vento grill. Wish I had pictures from more angles  :undecided:

I don't, making a mk3 look like a mk2 is pointless to me, I would just buy a mk2.

I hate Vento fronts! But quite like a Mk2 look!

A Mk2 is naff! They break down and rattle themselves to pieces!
Also they do not come with ABS or air-con.
So a Mk3 is far superior!

So a Mk3 that looks like a Mk2 is cool in my book!

I may be asking for it now but... In 80,000 miles neither of my Mk3s have ever broken down.
