First off all I apologise for reviving a topic but I've done a bit of a search and the last threads I can find seem to start and finish in 2013.
From the gist of what I've read the DVANI have stuck to their idiotic guns and simply said "tough lad, deal with it!" regardless of the rule/law being passed after many (mostly jap) cars had been manufactured with HID/Xenons as either standard or a factory option.
I know that the VOSA on the mainland changed their wording which allows many cars to have them fitted.
Is it still illegal unless cars have self levelling headlamps (except for cars fitted with sports suspension) and have headlamp washer jets?
If so I presume there was never a coordinated effort at petitioning the DVANI to change the wording?
Now that the DVANI have all but moved their HQ to Swansea do we not now fall under the mainland rules and therefore VOSA rules?
