Spot on.

I was looking at one over the weekend and it struck me how close the front looked like a Manta A from that angle.

That leaves #1. Colm was closest, in that he had the right "group"

I'd never have got it with the clue. I was focusing on the chrome strip along the edge of the window which I don't think is even normally visible.

Alfa GTV comes to mind, something with a clamshell bonnet that closes over the headlights anyway.

Spot on. It was one that kept people guessing for quite a while in the early days of this thread (many years ago) but I guess I can't trick you guys twice.

It reminds me of an early Lada Samara, the way the nose of the car is just stuck on the front

No to all of these.

This car wasn't available in Europe. It was developed with another manufacturer who made their own very similar version and that was available here

It does look like the Renault AMC/Eagle Medallion body panels (Renault 21) but the lights are different.
