Mk IV is correct. However Angliss/Autokraft also produced the long nose to differentiate his Mk IV from the earlier 1960s cars. However, demand from traditional enthusiasts called for a Mk IV that was more period looking, including the short nose styling. The car he produced to appease them was the Mk IV lightweight, of which 28 were built.
I have a Mk IV and much prefer the earlier short nose, although I might never known, had it not been pointed out.
