And I love the manual handles to start the wipers, probably slow the reps down a bit in poor weather if they had to crank the wipers into action!

You're right, so many nowadays would not know what a choke is for let alone know how to tweak it for optimum warm ups. The wipers are always a talking point, you can have just the drivers side on or both on, clever stuff really
