hmm maybe they did a few? it always seems weird when car companies do this. ie that crazy MG thing with all the vents.... and punto headlamps: http://www.2sportscars.com/wallpapers/MG-XPower-800.jpg

...or noble m12 with mondeo rear lights:

seems like pointless cost cutting.

theres a big list of them in last weeks autocar. that XJ220 jag had rover 200 rear lights.

The Lambo guillardo ( or whatever its called) uses seat belt buckles from a fiat panda. Lambo charge £700 for a new one....fiat @ £25  :laugh:

I think the lights really suit that car  :smiley: does seem a bit weird tho using other car parts ... wouldnt they have to pay a certain amount to use the design?  :undecided:

Old TVR Cerberas had upside down Mk3 fiesta rear clusters!



Sorry, I know that's not the best pic, but for some strange reason in all the others I find they've been changed! ha ha
