I went into a dealer once and asked about wiper blades. They suggested I went to somewhere like Halfords because theirs were so expensive.

I got them from wiperbldes.co

If you can afford a NSX.....

Once upon a time you could pick the whole car up for 16K. It's a. Bitter pill to swallow realising that the tape deck costs a quarter of the price you paid for the whole car [emoji35]

And like an idiot I didn't buy the NSX I looked at. About 6-7yrs back I had a wad of cash burning a hole in my pocket and went out to buy a toy.

Found a slightly tatty NSX for my budget, but didn't think I could afford the fuel (@20k/yr) so plumped for a VX220. Both the NSX and the Cerbera (also in budget at that point) have appreciated at a staggering rate since.

How come you only need one, wouldn't both blades wear at the same rate?

 

This is at least why they are always sold in pairs.

Halfords sell individual blades, in different makes.

Last time I was on the Nurburgring I overtook a Honda NSX. He then spun out behind me! Oops! Luckily he didn't hit the barrier but I watched it happen in slow-mo in my mirror clenching my teeth!

 

Any... back on track. Will get some refills next time I need some wipers. Just picked up a pair of Bosch for less than £15 second hand (but not used! lol)

Ah.... a "why didnt I buy it" thread looms

 

me...

 

A 4ltr RR Vanden Plas.... mint £150

A Sunbeam Alpine (the 2 seater)......mint £200

A 5 ltr Aussie charger......£800, sold when I went back so i bought a Vauxhall viva

 

but dont laugh, it was a 2300cc twin carb version (street sleeper)

where do dealers get prices from?

 

in their anuses

You only look out of one side of the screen , you can afford to let the passenger struggle

I know how you feel. This was my last NSX, I sold it for 37K. It's probably work 57K now [emoji30][emoji30]

Or wrapped around a tree somewhere

If you can remember the reg number you can check to see if it is still alive here, and it's MOT pass / fail history...

It was on a private plate when I sold it which the next keeper retained.

Good job you don't have an Airbus A380,  Wiper blades are in the region of $1000/$1500 each

 

$1500 or wind the window down and lean out with a cloth.....
