Odd idea for winter

For the last few years my cars have had heated front screens and they have not been exclusively Ford owned. (Rover group, BMW, Ford, tata).

You need heaters in the car that come on in the morning on a timer

Sounds like the timer idea is no good as he doesn't know when the pager is going to go off and thus when he will be required but has only 5 mins to get himself up, together and travel.

You could do with some sort of remote start so the first thing you do when the pager goes off is press the remote to start the car, having left the heater on full blast when you left the car.

The only thing is I still don't think the car would have warmed up enough to have cleared the screen and wotnot before you need it.

Have you tried that de-icer that you put on the night before? I've used it but didn't think much of it and foundit just smears the screen. I don't know if there is a better version around.

What do so the members that live in colder climes do??

In respect of the why don't you put it in a garage question - not everyone can afford a property with a garage. I used to rent them but now I'm fortunate to be in a position to own a house with a big garage.

Trouble is when the weather is rubbish the Jimny needs to be the car at the front of the drive and the garage is at the back of it. Moving the BMW out of the way to access the garage isa no no as it can't move on snow and ice. So the Jimny stays out in the elements.

I don't have to be somewhere within a few mins of a pager going off these days though!
