Mk1 LED/Adaptive Headlights?

[ninanina]

I’m just wondering if any of the Mk1 C-HR’s had LED headlights and/or adaptive? (I think adaptive is the right term for when the headlights correct the light depending on conditions/oncoming traffic etc)

Thanks for any advice

Yes the higher spec versions had them.

Edit to my above post… the headlight beam turns corners with the steering and they have auto dip/main beam, but they don't turn off specific leds to accommodate for oncoming traffic.

The turning off specific LED would be a Matrix type headlamp.

So would a late Excel/GR Sport have Adaptive LED headlights and how do I tell by looking at them

GR Sport & Excel of same era will as they where standard equipment.

The headlights do a movement check dance when you power the car up in the dark OR you can see the beams moving left / right as you drive along as your turn the steering. 

A pre May 2023 built Excel or GR Sport with optional JBL would be worth searching for.

My dealer has a late 2023 2.0 GR Sport that I’m interested in.  I did like the extra speed of the 2.0 when I drove one 

The only worry is how do you get at the Battery if it dies or can you jump it from underneath the bonnet

You can jump it from under the bonnet.

Thanks so much for the info

I’ve now seen pictures of the 2.0 GR Sport and it looks a treat in light grey/blue with a black roof 

It was registered late last year and it’s only done 3,200 so I’m guessing it’s at least run in 

I am hoping to see it tomorrow afternoon so let’s hope that it’s the one
