With some risk I'll date it on 1979 too. EDIT: According to this website first ten pre-serial cars arrived on the test track in the late 1978, so 1978 is the oldest possibility. Also Leyland called its projects at this stage of development the "FEP" (Fully-Engineered Prototype) - same was with ADOs 88. Here are listed the FEPs/pre-serial cars with headlights/indicators used later in the cheaper Metros: ![[Image: lc879a1.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/1306/lc879a1.jpg) ![[Image: lc879a5.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/1306/lc879a5.jpg) ![[Image: lc879a4.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/1306/lc879a4.jpg) ![[Image: lc879a6.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/1306/lc879a6.jpg) ![[Image: lc879a2.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/1306/lc879a2.jpg) ![[Image: minimetro78lc8.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/1306/minimetro78lc8.jpg) ![[Image: minimetro78lc81.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/1306/minimetro78lc81.jpg) (last thumb - 1978 MY+ Starlet in the background, so 1978/79).
