WINDSHIELD WASHERS: Triumph (1935)
The first cars to feature windshield washers as standard were the 1935
Triumph Gloria and Vitesse. It was a *vacuum-operated system* rather than
electric, and only closed versions of the car got such technology =E2=80=93
presumably those who bought an open-topped car were expected to just stick
their head over the top of the screen to see the way ahead.
*GROUNDBREAKER SCORE: 8 *=E2=80=93 very handy.
