My sister took this photo in Italy last year. I'm not sure about the model. I'm sure I have lots to learn about European models. Is the front fender trim owner added? The little clear lights to the outside of the headlights look like TR4A lenses, but in the wrong place. Other items look different, even the bumper guards.



Thanks
 
The small orange light on the front fender is added. That might be due to a regional requirement as the MGA also has one, also added. The trim on the top of the front fender is stock as shown. The small clear lensed lights are standard to the TR4, they are parking lights. The bumper guards look to be stock TR4 units, the image isn't detailed enough to show their supports that are routed through the grill to the inner fenders. Based on the image it looks like a stock TR4, other than the fender light.

Mr. Muzio know all!
 
Back then, it seems virtually every European country (not to mention most others 'round the world) and even some major cities had one or more lighting regulations and requirements unique to that country, whether it be color of a side and/or flasher lamp, side-of-the-car marker lamp(s), location and number of license plate illumination lamps, headlamp beam pattern, etc.!
