Huh?Always “nice” to see `members’ that fire in Q’s demanding A’s -all while sat on their arse & offering nothing by way of reciprocal input.

Someone's a bit moody..
The problem with the Panda is that the rear wiper then operates continuously, thus wiping an almost-dry rear screen. With the amount of reversing manoeuvres we do on lessons, I encourage my students to use the single wipe facility [pushing the stalk upwards]. This will then clear the front and rear screens simultaneously but only when necessary. My Mk6 Fiesta had the same feature but when selecting reverse gear, the rear wiper operated intermittently - far better.
I'm glad you are happy with your new car though!
I only asked a question about tyres, didn't expect to be subject to your personal line of abuse. Didn't realise you were in charge but thanks for your advice and answers.Always “nice” to see `members’ that fire in Q’s demanding A’s -all while sat on their arse & offering nothing by way of reciprocal input.

Don't worry about it, you will get used to his posting style, some of us even choose to ignore itI only asked a question about tyres, didn't expect to be subject to your personal line of abuse. Didn't realise you were in charge but thanks for your advice and answers.
I agree with you about the wipers. I also use my Panda to do tuition and find that the front intermittent has too long a pause between wipes and generally get pupils to use flick wipe when going forward.The problem with the Panda is that the rear wiper then operates continuously, thus wiping an almost-dry rear screen.

Yee haw!
It bucketed down the other day and I had to go out in the car. It rained so heavily that even with the wipers on full speed, I had to slow to around 30mph because at times, I still couldn`t see through the rain.
The Dynamic handled superbly! The air con kept the windscren clear and yet the car didn`t get too cold. I really loved driving in the rain, the car felt so secure.
I`m loving this over the Seicento now:slayer:
The front screen intermittent setting needs a variable-delay controller as fitted to both Mk6 and Mk5 Fiestas that I ran previously.
Tbh all you're really experiencing is a car on more or less new tyres with new suspension. A car on new tyres is always going to feel good in the rain.
Well,my Sei had 4 new tyres last June, so I don`t think it`s just because of new tyres. Maybe the differecne in the tyre - the Sei had low profile.
It always slipped if I accelerated a little too quickly, so far the Panda hasn`t.
The suspension is way different, the Sei was a Sporting so was quite hard.
My old Corsa had quite a neat variable intermittent without any extra switches. You gave a flick-wipe and then when the screen got rainy again you put it into intermittent and it would keep that timing.
