Hi all, I know that the Noble m12 shares it's rear lights with a Mondeo, but other than the VAG group, are there any more cars that share interior/exterior parts? The more obscure the better! smile

Micra/Clio - think there's some parts sharing there these days ?

Mazda/Ford - various shares there.

Citroen CX wing mirrors appeared on many cars including the Macca F1 and perhaps the XJ220 too.

Lotus Elite & Eclat wedges also used Marina door handles.

Excel & Esprit used Rover SD1 rear lights (turned upside down on the Excel).
Excel has sidelight & indicator units from a tractor.
Excel brakes & transmission are from Celica Supra Mk II.

early Westfields used Allegro steering column and Maxi balljoints.

Climate controls from either a rover 25 or a 45 (cant remember which) are same as a pagani zonda.

Wing mirrors on a vx220 are from a mini metro.

SportKa and StreetKa had the same units - but that's hardly a surprise or secret!
