Exactly, and the reason why I have halogen, would love the xenons but figured I was getting ripped off enough.

Having had these lights for two years I will always tick the box for them when ordering a new car. They are without doubt a brilliant safety feature.
When you go up a hill the lights point down.

When you go round a corner the lights turn with the steering wheel lighting up the bend.
Living in the country I find these light a God send. Strongly recommended.

My GTD is the first car I've had with xenons. Agree, they're brilliant! One of the best features of the car and really glad I spec'd them.

Agreed, I also have them and they're my favourite feature on the car. They are stupidly expensive though, I'm not sure I get why a pair of headlights should cost even half what VW charge.

Xenons all the way - seems expensive but they are not when you look at the price to retro fit.....

I do find it funny how you buy a diesel to save money then blow a load of the savings on headlights, but I agree by far the best option I ticked!
