 Bulb life - Dieselfitter
Had to change another dipped headlight bulb on daughter's Ka at the weekend - this time I can remember for sure that the bulb in question was fitted on Christmas Eve. Why are they lasting such a short time? 3 theories:

1. I've been buying rubbish bulbs and should be buying a premium brand instead

2. It's the state of the roads, potholes etc causing too much vibration/shock

3. There something wrong with the voltage regulation on the Ka

Shomething wrong, shurely? Considering what a pain it is to change a headlight bulb on a Ka, it's like being trapped in a recurring nightmare!
