Wiper Update

I usually avoid driving the Land Rover in the rain, as I've heard how bad the old windshield wiper system is. Of course, there's been a couple of times when there have been a few raindrops, but nothing really needing wipers. Well, today we were caught in a proper rain shower, and so I switched on the wiper on my side - and it did a perfect job. No hesitation, and wiped the windscreen clear of rain, just as it should. I suppose I shouldn't really be surprised, but somehow was. The 52-year-old refurbished motor did a great job, and the new wiper blades cleaned off the rain as they're supposed to, visibility was great, and on we drove. Too bad the door tops were off and we got a little wet. :)
