A motor vehicle headlight reflector and a headlight constructed therefrom, wherein the reflector comprises a plurality of laterally juxtaposed zones bounding transition lines with a break of slope.

The limits of horizontal spread in each zone varies progressively with displacement along the transition line concerned. The invention also includes a method of making the motor vehicle headlight reflector.
