Maximum Mini Christmas puzzle 2011

This time of year is full of traditions. So let's continue that theme here with our Christmas puzzle. It's like last year's (click here) but this time focusses on head lights rather then rear light clusters. The brief is simple: you give the full name and model designation of the cars that these lights belong to and the first who has them all right wins a copy of Maximum Mini volume 2 as soon as it is there (once again: don't hold your breathe - it will be there in the end). Send your answers via the comments below up until December 31 of this year. Good luck!

UPDATE 31 December 2011:
And we have a winner! Paul Wylde of Brierley Hill, a.k.a. 'Mini Buger', cracked the puzzle within a day! Congratulations Paul - you will be one of the very first to have a copy of Maximum Mini volume 2. The solution is: 1. ABC Tricar; 2. Zagato Mini Gatto; 3. Fletcher GT; 4. Midas Bronze; 5. Peel Viking Minisport; 6. McCoy (or Birchall McCoy or McCoy GT); 7. Davrian Mk8; 8. Mini Marcos Mk3 (but visually similar to other Mk1 and Mk2); 9. Stimson Mini Bug Mk2; 10. Kingfisher Sprint; 11. Cox GTM; 12. Sabre Sprint Mk2; 13. Elswick Envoy; 14; Status 365; 15. Landar R6; 17. Maya GT; 18. Davenport Special; Hustler Hellcat (but visually similar to many more Hustler models); 19. Phoenix Estate; 20. Sarcon Scarab; 21. Alto Boxer; 22. Gecko (or Autobarn Gecko); 23. ASD Minim; 24. Nimbus Coupe; 25. Biota Mk2.

  2. Not a bad start; 9 out of 25 in the first list are correct. Or just about - I do like the full model designations as long as these are available.

  3. Well if I look in the garage I can see number 12 and 24, but as is always the case with Mini derivatives, the lights on both my cars are totally different lights

  4. Haha. But I'm pretty sure you know there is a Mk1 and a Mk2 version for number 12. And the picture that I have used here for number 24 is in fact the works demonstrator...
