I'm pretty sure it was TR.  Overcast day maybe makes it look different to in south of France vids!

Ok, in my car...
The radio CAR settings have the toggle on/off for Dynamic Bend lighting. Like in the MK6.
And also like the mk6, the xenons do their little "dance" on startup, pointing up and down and sideways. Very cool if you face the car into a window and watch the lights as you start her up!

On top of all this, I think the fogs light up as you turn left/right, like they do in the lesser mk6's. I could swear the left/right fogs were coming on as I drove around the bends into my estate tonight! I don't know for certain, I'd need someone from outside the car to tell me!



MK8.5 GTI Clubsport. Moonstone grey. Queenstown 19’s. DCC. Harmon Kardon sound. Pano roof.

Thanks for that mate, it's not the fogs that light up it's the static cornering bulb in the main headlight, there is an extra bulb between the main xenon lamp and the sidelights.
