Xenon sucks?

Post by Dante »

Hi,

I'm about to buy a V70 and I need some advice regarding Xenon lights. From several people I have heard that the Xenon lights on V70 are'nt very good. Only the area close in front of the car is lit up and beyond that, pitch black. One reason for this might be that Volvo only uses one gauge on the rear axle, rather than on both rear and front as other manufacturers do. Any comments?

I have the xenon lights on my 04 XC90. Love the lights. Living in very woodsy area of NH with limited visibility at times, they have been a wonderful asset. Wish I could say that about the rest of the car.
