Peugeot 308 R concept

[Niall]

i like it apart from those stupid f*cking led running lights on top of the headlights. makes a handsome car instantly tacky

All new cars have to have DRLs now but agreed, i dont see what the thing is with car manufacturers using LED ones all the time. They dont have to be!

Its more because manufacturers use them due to the European Union Directive 2008/89/EC.

"European Union Directive 2008/89/EC requires all passenger cars and small delivery vans first type approved on or after 7 February 2011 in the EU to come equipped with daytime running lights."

Yes but nothing there says they have to be led.
