I discovered a neat feature on my car this morning. If you’ve got the windscreen wipers on and put the car into reverse, it automatically puts the rear screen wiper on, and keeps it on as long as the car is in reverse gear. That’s one of the “so simple, it’s obvious” ideas, and something I never really noticed was missing on previous cars I’ve driven. I think I’ll notice it missing when I drive a different car from now on, though.
As a related issue, I’ve not been doing any motorway driving this week, having had the week off work, and if I drive carefully and don’t have to start and stop too often at traffic lights, I can average 64mpg – I’m still on the first tank of fuel and I’ve had the car nearly two weeks now.
I’m happy all over at the moment!
