That pic was taken circa 1990 when I took delivery of it.

A 5-door run-out model with electric windows, and headlamp washers!

I know it's still out there, as I did a DVLA check online.

Head lamp washers only appeal because they're different.. If every mk2 had them people would be removing them to look smoother, and different.they don't even have wipers- so what the hell is a jet of water going to do? If you spray a garden hose on your headlamp it doesn't clean it at all-you have to sponge/ agitate it, so a piddly little jet??!! Same as the rear spoiler that was for sale a while back, with built in brake light, that you'll never see, and 99.9999% won't notice..but well worth the few hundred quid?! Hmmm...

MK1's are quite big, TBO I just like the look of them as it's a rare site on a mk1 and look like US nudge bars.  :grin:

But yeah when I had them I never used them, if you did need to clean them at least you had a source of water for them when you got a cloth out.  :grin:
