Just topped up the washer bottle with Comma All Seasons Screen wash.
At the bottom of the label it states " With Apple Fragrance ".
Why ? :o

Relatives came to visit over the weekend. They all arrived holding their noses after filling the screenwash bottle up with basics screenwash which smells truly repulsive! I didn't believe it until they showed me but every time the windscreen was washed the car filled up with an overpowering aroma of rotten eggs.

It's 106 miles to Chicago, we've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark, and we're wearing sunglasses.

I've spent the last 6 years covering obscene mileage each year in a Vermillion Dolomite. Number of times I've seen another Dolomite on the road other than in the immediate environs of a show - about 4, maybe 6.
In the last month I've driven Mrs Weevils mini 4 times and twice, FFS twice seen a Vermillion sprint (I think). I wave, I flash and then I remember what I'm in and just know he's wondering who the wierdo in the snot green matchbox is :(
1978 Pageant Sprint - the rustomite, 1972 Spitfire IV - sprintfire project, 1968 Valencia GT6 II - little Blue, 1980 Vermillion 1500HL - resting. 1974 Sienna 1500TC, Mrs Weevils big brown.
