Running Lights . . .

The only thing not on my Pure will be the Oxford leather (which doesn't bother me in the slightest), adaptive dynamics (ditto), body kit (hardly noticeable) and tailpipes and a red badge - circa £2.5k - still a lot to pay for those imho

Tech Pack, Foglamps, Privacy, Panoramic roof, Xenons, Keyless entry, 20in alloys and still over 2k cheaper than the base Dynamic

Sounds like the way to go. I've looked at the two packs and I'd only want one or two things from eiter, so I'm more inclined to go for the model I want - most likely a Prestige - and pay for the couple of extra things (if the vehicle be optioned that way!)

The big unknown is what the Australian distributor will actually make available Down Under. Only time will tell.

Plenty of shots of the DRL/Signature headlights in this video of a Prestige


And photos of them (with some night shots of them as well) on this Dynamic

Thanks Tim

What exactly is the point of having these running lights?

They are an EU requirement, but the UK hasn't yet enacted it into our laws I believe, but is coming.

I don't really see the purpose for them. Or am i missing something

In Northern Europe they're obligatory for years. Apparently positive effects of increased visibility (even during the day, yes) have been proven which is why the European Commission introduced them in the rest of Europe. Well, except for you guys...
