Gc8 headlamps are the worst design ever! short weak beam - compounded by the Shithouse GC8 electrical system that always suffers voltage drop in the headlamp harnesses.

Self levelling doesn't fix what you described - Self levelling is only to maintain the headlamp beam height as you load the car up and the rear sags (like when towing a trailer).

Adaptive headlamps are different, they switch from low to high automatically & use a light sensor to detect on coming traffic to dip the lights. Adaptive isn't an ADR requirement (Yet).
