Those look good, I also like the P700 headlamps, I've been wondering about getting some . What make are the LEDs ? I saw something similar on the Oberon stand at the bike show . Predictably enough they're an eBay item ( eBay 3000lm LED Driving Lights ), although this set are not from the fella from whom I bought mine, early last year. I was going to fit them to my Audi, but they suited the M3W so well I couldn't resist. I really like the P700 look too and the output and pattern seems pretty much the same as the originals, so nothing lost there.

100 years from now people will be arguing on forums about the fact that those lights didnt come originally on the cars...LOL!

Looking at the pictures again I was thinking it might be good to have the LEDs fixed to the mudguards so they turn with the wheels. I know this is more or less bound to be 'illegal' but I like the idea ...

HJP, some early cars had this, one of the most notable turning with the wheel would be the tucker, however is wasnt the light fixed to the mudguard. Im not sure where you would go to find out if it were legal or not. Because in some countries, the M3W is a "motorcycle" it may be able to get away with a lot of things that wouldnt be allowed on a car

I love the idea of the driving lights. I am sure it must soon be possible to get the pods that the rear lights (4) are in and add white LEDs.
My car is black so driving with sidelights on has to be a sensible precaution anyway in daylight.
What is the advantage of P700s, is it just aesthetic?

Yea, the DS had an option for swiveling headlamps. There have been very few who have offered the feature, which makes me wonder how useful it is and/or how problematic it is.

The Range Rover headlamps are directional under 30mph. Over that they're fixed straight.
