In an earlier contribution to this discussion,
Which part - the right to switch them off, or the money saved?
The first part is fairly obvious. In any country where the majority of new
cars are legally supplied *without* daytime running lights, it's a 'no
brainer' that you can turn them off on cars which *are* supplied with them,
without legal consequence.
With regard to money saved, I have only anecdotal evidence from this NG,
where people have complained about repeated bulb failures (possibly only
relating to certain models but, IIRC, including the 850 -> 70 series, but
maybe not S80)
You will appreciate that I used a little poetic licence in referring to a
"fortune". <g>
What amazes me is the absence of the pro-running-light brigade who almost
invariably get exercised whenever I advocate turning them off!
