Yes, my 1960 Mini does that..... probably because it doesn't have 'park' at all!

So wouldn't just turning the ignition off with the wipers running have the same effect? Need good timing to get them to park at the bottomof the screen

I miss the 'dribble wipe' that was on my ZS. Use the washer and the wipers do their stuff, park and then wipe again to catch that annoying dribble that always runs down the screen in the middle. It's not a thing for the 75/ZT as I asked at the Nano back in the summer.

Yes I have that on my 45,it's a nice touch.As is the rear wiper activating automatically when reversing while the front wipers are on.

So the standard set up still parks if you turn the ignition off mid sweep?
