sound right to me never looked for the regs, all I know is discharge lamps have by law (due to type approval) to have washers (to prevent lens flare) and headlamp levelling. So all those god awful D.I.Y fitted kits on all the chav'd up wonders that sear out your retinas are frankly an accident looking for a place to happen. It's a personal pet hate of mine, ignorant so'n'so's happily driving around blinding everyone else whilst thinking there car has lovely lights. In theory MOT should pick them out but the kits can be easily bypassed for mot time. Soapbox back in cupboard. Again.

Fiat Tipo diseasel econobox with all the buttons and none of the soul that now does all the heavy lifting.

Ford Capri Laser: noisy, slow, thirsty, bouncy, no buttons but it always sounds like it’s REALLY trying and I can’t help but chuckle when it parps and boings along. And people of a certain age stare at it with a wistful look in their eyes that clearly says…I had one of them. And I sold it because of the kids
