The 981 Cayman 2.7 comes with halogen lights as std. where as the 981 Cayman S comes with Xenon lights as std. but I noticed that there are loads of images where the Cayman S has no headlight washer system and I've read it's only available if you option PDLS?

I'm sure I've read that it's illegal in UK and won't pass MOT if car has Xenons without headlight washer system.

Is it possible that someone can confirm if the Cayman S without PDLS has headlight washer system?

Unless the pictures I've seen are in different countries where it's not a legal requirement?

Yup - I have a 981 Cayman S without headlight washers.
Are the std. Xenon lights OK for illumination? A little concerned to hear that the std. Xenons are not bright enough to require the washer system

I find them quite good - they are a noticeable improvement from the lights on my Spyder that I had before.
