Which model of car has them working when it rains after you start up,

Freelander II. Wipers stay in the mode selected (off, auto, on,
fast). So left in auto they can trigger unexpectedly.


Yes. That's why I expected the arrangment on the cars I had with it the
norm. H&S often taking precedence over convenience. Although I'd always
switch off the wipers before stopping the engine anyway. Unless you like
them parked in the middle of the screen. ;-)


I used to switch off with them vertical when in a car wash, but my
current and previous car both park(ed) the wipers when switching the
ignition off.
