Jaguar X-Type door mirrors used on the Lotus Evora Series 1.

Those are some sort of Ford / PAG group mirror, they are the same basic design on all Jaguars, Volvos and a couple of other things. Volvo switched to them on the P2 cars in the '04 MY. Very sensible example of sharing a common part.

The funny thing being that the MG had a recycled body / shell clothed in different panels.

Years ago when I had a Fiat x1/9 was always cheered by the fact it had the same boot / engine cover release as the Countach
Don't know about the Countach. Am aware the Ferrari 308 GTB had the same boot/engine cover release as the X/19. Along with the stalks. Also shared with the Fiat 126 but let's just gloss over that bit as former X/19 owners shall we?
Definately shared with the countach. My first car was an X1/9 smile

As an elise owner I can really appreciate what a great piece of design the X1/9 was. It had two boots, a full size spare wheel, and storage for the targa top.

Hardly a surprise now is it - The series 1 Freelander was designed and built by, wait for it, the Rover group!
