Yes, much better to just drive around not being able to see far enough ahead
What exactly is wrong with the normal lights? They are pretty good imo, and they don't dazzle people the same as dheads driving around with foglights on do.If you can't see far enough ahead with the normal lights, I would get your eyes checked.
I thought my front lights were pretty poor when I first had my V8... It turned out that the self levelling mechanism wasn't working because a wire had become disconnected... The effect was that the lights pointed further down than would be the norm. Once corrected and with the lights properly level things were much improved...

Jockman!Can you start a list for your George as well please - Don't forget to add Prom nights and manual gearboxes. I'm sure George's list will be as long as Mr Gould's
I recall having two x 100watt x 80's fitted to a motorcycle, the increased light was amazing plus I could fiddle with the dipped beam switch which meant they all came on. You need to have an electrical part fitted which stops your wiring loom overheating. I am now 55 and find glasses make no end of difference!!

V8V here and the lights are fine for similar conditions/roads (unlit, no light pollution). Nowhere near as good as my XC90's. But then they're 2ft lower and I'm sat 20ft lower in the AM!

Because the standard lights are not very bright. I thought that would have been obvious by my (and othrs by the looks of things) desie have have better forward illumination.You may have noticed that the motor industry has made significant improvements to the lights on cars over the last few years, this isnt purely cosmetic you understand.

Georgeous' mood swings can be down to nothing more than a bit of nappy rash, too many food additives or a short supply of Oxy10.
Michael on the other hand is genuinely a moaning old git, albeit a loveable one.
Methinks Georgeous is just trying that bit too hard to be the second funniest person on the forum.

You may well be right.Or I just generally dislike those absolute penises who drive around with fog lights on for no reason other than to dazzle fellow motorists. Especially us in low sports cars. Started off as a trend by chavs on their Corsas / Saxos etc and sadly now it seems that normal human beings are adopting it too.
