Just been out in mine around the lanes with plenty of main beam use. Mine seam fine? I can see that the dip beams turn off when you're on main beam, and that the area immediately in front of the car gets dimmer, but at the speeds I was driving (50-65mph) I wasn't concentrating on the area 2m in front of the car?? If I put the front fogs on then the area in front was mostly filled in but again it was irrelevant, I was looking at the road 10-100m in front of the car which was lit up well. This is on a Jan 08 build car.

If you want to talk about visibility issues the windscreen wipers are freakin useless and the washer bottle runs out far too fast!!
