Nice Car mate :)
 

Thats what the MOT man said when he gave me the keys back with my 13 month MOT

Boy was I smiling on the way home, now shall I buy those OEM mk1 xenons I've been offered ? (£220)

I am led to believe from a very reliable source that if you have projectors with good bulbs there is not much difference between those and xenons.
But I have the standard 1999 lenses with HID conversion units. lighting is good but they do not look the part so much.

What do others think?

Glad to see it passed O.K. Dave, go on treat yourself to the Xenons you know you want to ;)

Good price, have they got two sets?:D

Russ

I think I could find something more worthwhile to spend £220 on . . .

;)

Well done Dave go on treat yourself

Mine passed today too! He said "Nothing wrong with that beast mate, it's a great car. Sounds good too". Hooray! :hurray:

Same time, same place next year Jim? :D

Congratulations, Dave. That's that for another year.

Ha! Yeah. See you here.

the standard xenon lights are a well worth upgrade imho

Nice one! I seem to remember you worrying that your brake pipes may be a problem....

Aye, last year I was underneath and they are original but OK. Just bare metal no protection. MOT man said best get them protected.

Younger brother was ordered underneath with the waxoil, must have done a good job.

Negotiated the price of the Xenons down to £180. Boy am I tempted now but my Tax is due end of month :(

Does he sweep yer chimney too??! :D

Nice one Dave, we dont get enough compliments on our motors so enjoy it !

As for projectors with the right bulbs being close to xenons that interests me as i have projectors, but any idea which bulbs to try ?

You have a pm Rob

Just read my last reply and it seems like I want to keep the info a secret. The info was given to me Via PM and in my opinion they are just that Private Messages. :)

Here is the PM with the Accused names removed


Hi Dave
I don't have xenons but was able to make a direct comparison when I drove *****'* ZT with them on a dark and rainy night. Mine are projectors with the Phillips Brilliance bulbs....and the difference was absolutely minimal...I would not invest my own money in upgrading!

Hope that is clear to all :)
