Should the wipers self park?
Mine don't, is there an adjustment?
Can't find anything in the bible.

Yes, there's three (I think) live wires into the motor, one is the park switch.

Don't panic though, it's a standard run of the mill Lucas motor as fitted to numerous Triumphs, Marinas, Range rovers, etc, etc.

They should - the sensor/motor sometimes suffer from damp, but mine had failed totally and needed a new motor. Think it was about £15.......

Yuo can get a new park switch only for the motor direct from TVR, only a couple of quid and a two minute job to fit!

Actually the outside casing is but the innerds are more or less specific to TVR. No point in getting a motor from these cars because they won't work. The park switch is pretty standard though.
