Hi Jon, Osram do a NightBreaker + now (I've ordered them for my Clubman), in a test by Ride Magazine Phillips X-Treme Power bulbs came out very well.

Check out prices from Osram Night Breaker Plus NightBreaker Plus Philips Xtreme Power 80% 90% AutoBulbsOnline

What do you think of the Osram NightBreakers in your Mini?

I have ordered a set of Nightbreaker plus H4 for the Cooper and H7 for the Pug 207.

Hopefully they are better than the Normal Nightbreakers which lasted less than a year.

The one I had only worked with the high beam at best. but I think the new ones should be alot better and work on dipped beam.

Apparently one of the issues with the NightBreakers were short life and that has been addressed with the Nightbreaker Plus, that said I've got a set of NightBreakers coming for my Harley to replace the dipped beam H11 bulb; unfortunately nobody seems to do an uprated bulb for it's main beam as they are H9's.

I'll let you know what I think of the NightBreaker Plus in the Clubman when they arrive and I've fitted them.
