This debate will inevitably lead to those who have Xenons swearing by them and those who havent saying they might be a waste of money. My last car had them and they were good, my XC60 does not have them and I can see perfectly well when driving at night.
After market products are available but not as good as the factory fits and as many have said may be illegal to drive. Stating the obvious I know but lets not get into the mines is better than yours thread! |

From my point.
I find the Active Bending Headlights a bonus, as I drive on the right at least 5 times a year (some 50/60 days) and at the push of a button, you can move the headlights from Left/Right, without having to fit masking deflectors. Get it wrong, in France and one can face a hefty fine. tem. |

I have them on the S60 as part of a package and again they're coming as part of the se lux trim on the XC60. They're OK but it's not that often you get to use full beam nowadays with the amount of traffic on the roads. The bendy bits are just the low beams, they only bend by 15 degrees either side.They're nice to have I guess but wouldn't pay a grand for them.

Having never had xenon headlights before, I did find them a bit of a revelation to be honest, particularly on the twisty dark country roads I frequent to work and back. I definitely notice an improvement versus my other car, and when I look to replace that, I will certainly consider going for Xenons on that as well (price permitting of course).
Sorry Scot if that comes over as a 'mine's better than yours' post.... ![]()

They came as standard on our Se Lux, were not something we would have specced and whilst nice, in my opinion would certainly not justify paying for as an expensive option. So rather than a 'mine's better than yours' post I suppose this is a 'I'd have preferred the cash off' post.

If the SE Lux had heated seats included and dropped the bendy lights it would probably make for a better package and bring the price down a bit. |

I have to agree, heated seats front and rear were specced and are worth every penny.
