Is there a scraper that is actually any good at scraping? I buy a new one every year hoping it might fulfil its sole purpose of existence, but they're all rubbish.

Me too, my neighbour and I tend to leave around the same time so I did his windscreen as well, he wandered out after hearing me grumbling about the weather.

The only benefit of the cold weather is that I love sleeping in the cold, and thankfully as I'm currently single I've got some time to enjoy a nice cold bedroom!

Still lovely & warm in London, and when it gets frosty I'll switch on the heated windscreen smile

The smog and global warming in the hood is currently keeping things warm, when it gets cold ill use paint stripper/de-icer to clear my screen then promptly die horrendously as i'm on summer ditchfinders.

Speaking of which, are Nankang SV2's (stop laughing) any good?

just turn the engine on 5 mins before you leave....

  • awaits comments on how this will knacker the engine, is illegal to leave a car unattended with the engine running, and possibly even how this will cause polar bears to become extinct*
