Re: What did you do today?
I am sure it won't be this but you never know. A lot of those horrid areo blades come with a plastic strip over the rubber to hold them straight in the packaging. It should just slide off then the blade will look curved and do it's job

Have you tried cleaning the glass thoroughly? It could be a layer of traffic film and oil.

Yes, I took the white plastic bit off. lol. The windscreen is immaculate. The old wipers cleared it perfectly fine, the rubber had turned hard and started to squeak.

Re: What did you do today?
Oil change done on my mate car today. Of course we got soaked as although wet it started raining half way through.
Had to take off a small bit of pointless plastic shield over what looked like a sub frame for the axle stands, of course the twat wouldn't go back on. Got two screws in so better than nothing.

These are some words.

Re: What did you do today?
Went and picked up the RO80 today. It is not good the car is totally fucked but as you do I bought it anyway. I will do some serious rust pictures later in the week but as the engine is locked solid there is no point trying to do anything to it other than chopping it up.

Re: What did you do today?
That's a bit of a blow.
At least the decision as to whether to restore it or not is made for you.
