No, no, no, the only time you see Rallye with round headlights is when MOT comes around and his square ones are feked!

Or you just need some normal RHD lights.

I used to think that Rallye's were ruined by their headlights but I don't think anything suits them more than the lightsthey were built with.

Sticking in Audi Xenons was the best thing for them they looked cool and bright and should have had them in the first place made the front look modern instead of candles in the wind.

I wanted a Rallye headlamp setup on my Golf for years, wouldn't be able to fit one now (if I cared) because of the intercooler..

A properly sorted Rallye can look the absolute dogs danglies. I've wanted one for at least 15 years but either couldn't afford it or it wasn't / isn't practical due to work / kids - rubbish.

I've wanted one for 5 years but with a boosted R32. That will never happen, but I can dream
