Renault 4GTL with 1100 cc engine and built around 1980
Renault 6TL (1970s model)
SAAB 9-3 Sports Wagon (lights dip down, not to the side)
Skoda Roomster
Skoda Octavia vRS with optional Xenon lights allows the beam to be put into 'Travel Mode' via the Maxidot computer. The lights remain in this mode until you switch them back. You are reminded that they are in Travel Mode every time you turn the car on. This doesn't switch the beam but simply flattens the kick-up on the left side.
Skoda Superb Mk 1 (has levers, but fiddly to get at)
Skoda Superb II Elegance (electrically)
Vauxhall Calibra
Vauxhall Zafira B with Bi-Xenon adaptive headlights have a switch within the cab.
Vauxhall Vectra 2002 - 2005
Vauxhall Signum 2002 - 2005
Vauxhall Insignia with halogen headlights
Vauxhall Omega CDX
VW Passat from 2001 - 2005
Volvo XC60
Volvo XC70
Volvo XC90 with 'Active Bending Xenon' headlights (Unfortunately these require the driver to go through 10 steps to switch from left dip to right dip, but revert to left dip whenever the engine is switched off. By September 2010 Volvo had no fix for this.)
Volvo XC90 with Directional bi-Xenon headlights
