I had a set of cheap led spotlamps fitted to a zx and they were amazing! Too bright infact on b/a roads with tons of road signs everywhere the light bouncing back was blinding 😂

But on a dark quiet night I felt like a rally driver 😂 I'm sure I had a muntjack think twice before darting out over the road too but I could have just got lucky

That's my biggest complaint about the headlights in the Volvo - retro reflective signs are downright blinding.

I had a pair of 150W spots on my Lada Niva and it was always kinda funny when you switched to main beam and the entire world for about 1/2 a mile seemed to turn to daylight.

We did have a lot of deer out our way and they definitely helped me spot a couple which I'd otherwise have been oblivious to.

Anyone who wants a Disco 2 TD5 manual, drop me a line. 

How much? Any MOT?

It'll get a full one.  And I'll let you know the price when I get it back from the specialist....

I had to go to Stoke on Friday and the roads are appalling! You have my sympathies. I honestly have no idea how I managed to get out of there without cracking a wheel!

My dad has a a Mercedes CLA200 and has gone through 3 front tyres in 2 years. Usually when I clean it for him, I spot the bulge. Nearside every time. But he doesn’t see the potholes until it’s too late. Brothers cracked a few rims on his 535d. I don’t really have tyre related pothole damage because I run the highest profile tyres I can get.
