Was a nice day in London this afternoon so took the Zed for a spin with shades on and window down. Was at traffic lights and the van next to me decided to clean his windscreen and started squirting fluid in my direction (not sure whether he was trying to annoy me or not) so I pretty quickly put my window up and was safe. It then crossed my mind about how my Roadster brothers and sisters deal with this situation with the top down? If the vehicle next to you is higher and has a good aim in your direction, do you get it in the eye? Or a wet head?

Those bad arse "Men in a White Van" that I hear so much about on here !
My guess is that they saw how hot you are and were just trying to get to know you.

Give the alternatives I'd say you got off lightly compared to the options available "Men in White Vans" have at their disposal.
I'd consider it a compliment ..

I can use mine stationary (windows up) no leakage into the cabin, as long as I don't do a massive squirt.
Rubes, the idiots who squirt when you are behind them make me laugh, they have no idea of how aerodynamics work! Straight over the car in the wind.
(Edit, I'm just waiting for the smut to start.

:wink:When I was about 20 (young and invincible) some twat did this to me when I was on the bike. How he laughed until the next set of traffic lights. I pulled up alongside him Gesturing to wind the window down. He didn't 
White knuckles gripping the steering wheel, staring straight ahead. Swallowing hard.
Popped his Driver's side wiper up and waited. He set off, and I followed until he was obviously shitting himself so much he pulled in to a police station.
Either that or he was a copper. (thought of this a couple of days later, then shat myself for a week, imagining all sorts of truncheon based injuries)
