Beautiful! Careful on those cross channel ferries - a loony killed our D2 on one this summer. Last in lane is good.

The auto switch over for headlights when you travel abroad requires "Adaptive light and high-beam assist" option.

Includes swivelling headlights for improved illumination of a winding road, and dynamic cornering light function which pivots the headlights based on the movement of the steering wheel (operational between speeds
of approximately 6mph and 68mph). Turning light function is activated when indicator
is switched on (up to speeds of 45mph).

The headlights have three different light distribution modes: town light, motorway light, or country light, which are adjusted according to speed or via navigation route data.

Additional functionality via navigation based vehicle support includes junction light, which provides a wide front light setting, as well as travel mode, which switches between right and left-hand drive modes
assisted by GPS data.


High-beam assist automatically adjusts headlights from high-beam to dipped-beam when another vehicle is approaching or when other ambient lighting is detected (i.e. street lights) by a camera on the interior mirror.
Not available in combination with all-LED headlights including high-beam assist (PX2)

Thanks for that info, Neil. That explains it. Need to get decent daytime DSLR shots of the cars together. Here's one crappy one.

Unhappy

Good spot! Wonder how easy it'd be... Not going to do anything to the D4, it is going to be replaced by a D5, not a keeper unlike the D2. But thanks anyway.

Edit: Ignore the sad face smiley. Have no idea how that got there.
