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

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  Grin


Nah, not me Pete......I'm a reformed character!! Roll Eyes Tongue

No doubt there will be a lot of retro fitting over the next few weeks.

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. Grin

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!! Thumbs Up!


Thumbs Up! Thumbs Up! Thumbs Up!

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