Funnily enough I find them more noticeable in town as you can actually see that you've got headlights on under street lights as the xenons pick out details that normal bulbs don't - for instance as I turn into my road I can see how clean the insides of the alloys are on my Ibiza with the xenons on the odd occasion I clean it!!
No, seriously I blast up and down the A30 past Dartmoor and over Bodmin moor all the time and the xenons have a sharper cut off than the Philips Silver Visions which lit the road really well. So if a deer runs out on the bit which is cut off you'd never see it but with the Philips you'd see the beast in the gloom. The xenons on main beam are something else though!! I can see France from my house with the main beam on!!!
