Spotted this on the way home the other day parked in front of the clubhouse. Loved the unusual middle headlamp. It’s a rare Austin A90 Atlantic convertible. The middle light is a spotlight but gives it a distinctive and unusal appearance.

Yes, and of course there were other cars that had a similar arrangement, for example the early 50’s Rover 75 known affectionately as “Cyclops”.  This had a central headlight that was designed into the radiator grille.
