It would appear that my windscreen washer bottle has cracked as I have no fluid in the thing despite topping it up a couple of times and never using it.

Can anyone tell me if the bottle is just one of these (I think it probably is):

If not, the factory one is quite expensive from memory (it was listed on Peter Smith's website before it went down).

Thanks,
Rob

Yes that's the right one, I bought a new one because the cap had broke but it was so cheap to buy the kit. Have a look on eBay, type in 'universal washer' or something similar and you should find plenty, I paid £11 delivered rather than the £70 + vat I was quoted from a stealer. Just found this on eBay, item number 360423069562

Wow that's great thanks! Are you certain that eBay link is the exact one? If so I'll just get that, perfect.

From what I can see in the pic it's identicle to mine (GTO3), and all the washer bottles I've seen in nobles are the same so it should fit. It would be worth getting yours off the car and comparing the two before you buy it just to be sure.

Could you not repair the crack with Araldite ? I did that a few years ago on a previous car. Worked a treat.
