agreed. It looks like it came off an Austin Allegro estate!Bing said:exdos said:Cibbers said:
Wrong! :wink:
The M Coupe has a rear wiper.
Doesn't look great though...
rear window wiper ?
- Thread starter saskia
- Start date
So far the consensus is a big NO , ok , and Astons don't have them nor do modern 911's although the original 911 turbo did. Will have to get used to a murky view out the back on wet mornings . Huge respect for all your views and I love my m coupe by the way , just nit picking .
Maybe you need to go to specsavers? I've never ever considered the car needed one. On the motorway the rain clears from the rear window anyway due to aerodynamic flow. Even in town, provided no mist on rear window I didn't have any problem or ever thought it needed a wiper.
I also find when set correctly the side mirrors give a very good rear view showing anything pretty much even directly behind you and rain doesn't really affect them.

The wing mirrors don't take the place of the rear view mirror , try reversing out onto a road in the early morning ! ferrari driver went past me this evening on the other side of the road coming through thedddingworth leics and had a good look , don't think he had seen an mc before !
Doh! How could i forget the X's?!
As for the M Coupe - would look better without one.
And lastly, the Z4 Coupe would look awful with a rear wiper. The stupid aerial location looks bad enough as it is. I still don't understand why they didn't build the aerial into the big pane of glass on the back.... or even a sharksfin on the roof... (flame retardant suit on)

Again, what does any van do? Just take it carefully and slowly until you can see with your mirrors, if you have to reverse out everyday, you would probably do better to reverse in instead.
Granted a rear view is ideal, but I don't mind losing a window to have a better looking car. With the roadster, I have the wind deflector in at all times so I have little view out of the back anyway so never use it.
