And bob.dent, having an MV6, misses out on luxuries like heated nozzles.

Ah, so MV6's don't have heated washer jets then. :(
Oh well, back to the old trick of arm out of window with Fairy Liquid bottle full of water to squirt on screen. ::)

Driving to work this morning the outside temp was showing -9C!! - haven't seen it that low for some time.
As if that's not enough of a hazard, damn windscreen washer jets froze and made vision very difficult with all the crap being thrown up on the screen.
I wouldn't worry about it Bob, you have alcohol running through you veins so you won't freeze up  ;D

Nah, not me Pete......I'm a reformed character!! ::) :P

Just reading this thread makes me feel cold, Oh well Ive only got anpther 24 Hours of this, then I'll be eating a Chinise Take Away, over looking Hong Kong Habour. ;D
Lucky Lucky you!!  I did three trips out there (roof on airport amongst other things)  mid/late nineties absolutely loved it, cant afford to go back for a holiday but would jump at the chance to go again, make sure you try the 'old china hand' if you end up missing a good english breakfast!! :y

:y :y :y

Feel like Ive high jacked the thread now where talking about heated washers, bit the OP was talking about the weather?
