Finally, my stockpile has run out.

No sign of any in the latest motoring offers.

Other recommendations please. The last one I bought from Halfords smeared and made things worse than using plain water.

    My last lot came from one of the bargain shops (can't remember which) and was okay. It cost a fraction of the supermarket joke prices.

    Well, when they last had some, about 3 years ago, it had a nice citrus smell.

    I bought it on a recommendation from this forum.

    Unfortunately it's a bit early for the Lidl winter screen wash. It usually appears around November. I usually get 4 5ltr packs, still got 2 left. The VW stuff that sometime's sold on ebay is pretty good.

    Thanks for that. I know it's good in icy weather, so I guess it'll possibly be around when there's maximum demand. But it's so good all year round....
