My 1988 XF panel van has all that fitted too.  8)
My old datto 1600 had a different system, where you moved the arse end of the car opposite direction so you could see - saved moving your head :D

Just more dumbing down of the general population.
If they spent that money on teaching people how to drive VS how to pass a test.
Then we could lose those stupid "Speed Kills" crap from everyday life.

So, lets say you buy a new Raptor, the things you can look forward to in around 10 years.

Faded headlights, hood lining falling down, clear coat peeling off, plastic clips and retainers failing...... should I continue.

OK, the big one, within a week of ownership or less, its worth around 2/3rds what you paid for it.

Wanna feel better about yourself, it happens to just about every new car.
I DON'T CARE HOW NICE THE HAND SOAP SMELLS.....

You should never walk out of the public toilets sniffing your fingers.

Those first two apply to nearly every vehicle on the market now anyway so nothing special there
