[Healeys] BJ7 with four front lights

Here's a question for the real experts,

A friend has recently acquired a BJ7 3000 Mk II. It has two headlights
and four small lights in the front. The placement of these small lights is
similar to a BJ8 and I first thought the car must have had some major
front-end damage and had it's sheet metal replaced with that from a later
car. But the lights on a BJ8 are larger and the aperture they sit against
are therefore larger as well. This car has the bee hive lights as were
correct for a BJ7 except there are four of them, tow clear lenses and two
amber lenses.
My question is: Did the factory ever make four light BJ7s? Maybe for the
European market? Anybody have any guesses?

ps  There are four lights in the rear as well. Two red ones where you would
expect a BJ7 to have them and two amber ones instead of reflectors.
The amber lenses are wired as turn signals

TIA
