The 2012 XJ doesn't have the yellow-orange turn signal on the headlamps. Looks sharper I think.

Are you sure that isn't a US vs UK thing with the headlights due to different regulations?

Not sure. But I think it still looks cleaner.

I agree. I just checked the UK site and it appears that it is a regional thing. The 2011 pics for the UK don't have amber reflectors either. Per wikipedia, DOT regulations in the US require front and rear amber reflectors on all cars so I think the 2012s here in the US will continue to have the amber reflectors in the headlights.

That is correct. Its a European vs. American thing.
