In the retracted position, the lens surface of the head lamp assembly is located along the body surface. The pivot axis is inclined downwardly and rearwardly with respect to a horizontal transverse line as seen in transverse outward direction of the body so that the lens surface is substantially flush with the body surface in the retracted position.
