Greenlight insurance are pretty good, specialise in over 21 and performance cars

I'd try the bulb first, put the one from the other headlight in the faulty one to prove the if the ballast is working. If it works then new bulbs it is, if not it could be the ballast or even the igniter which is the black square part on the back of the bulb

Does anyone have a picture of a clio 1*2 with white wheels... Do you call it flame red? The colour of the car? See pic below for colour of car.

Bulb will have gone mate... I had a problem very similar... I would come on but never get as bright as it should then flicker and go off hen not come on at all for a bit... D2S bulbs search eBay £15 quid for a set from hid direct.

I used to have a set on an old valver, they went well with the jap style body kit, jap exhaust and m3 Mirros... :/
