And the tax disc has been nicked from another car, causing damage, hassle and expence to the owner.

Haha, Im really sure I dont actually have foglights.. My mkII seat ibiza doesnt have a button for them, but theres a strange vertical knob next to the rotary lights switch to the right of the dash which may be it, but I got the girlfriend to go outside the car and have a look to see if anything comes on when I turned the dial up/down but nothing!

Isnt that to set the angle of your headlights?

Yeah im pritty sure it is... I will go take a look for him... Its illegal to not have a fog light these days :s

madmax

some foglights are just the rear foglight....

that in clear conditions is so bright you cant tell the difference between "brakes on" and "brakes off, lights on"  :evil:

Edd

no its a legal requirement to have rear fog lights, its not illegal to not have front fog lights, but if you do have them they must work

Edd

oh and on ur seat, try pulling the the knob out when ur lights are on, that might turn the rear fogs on

Bingo the MK2 Ibiza is just a VW Polo with a less "desirable" badge.  the fog lighs come on when you pull the headlight switch out.

Edd

its the same on a transit connect, i spent ages trying to work out how to turn the buggers on, and it was when u couldnt see more than 5 metres in front of you AND it was pitch black

If you ask me reading that site should be compulsory before any driver is allowed on the motorway.

Same goes for the Xenon brigade
