Do you think the 206 looks better with or without the rear wiper??
is it actually a requirement for the MOT to pass??

The wiper is there for a reason. Removing it is just for those who are desperate to modify something with no money.

So why are some newer cars coming out of the factory without rear windscreen wipers?

i find it's more for a smoother back and if i still had the 206 i'd certainly have done it now
thinking about doing the twingo aswell xD

Definately without.
And edward I don't know why both times you've had to bring money into it, it just looks so much better. Even if you had to spend £££ on a new rear window that was smoothed in I would definately buy it. Would it be ok then as it cost money? Don't see the logic in what your saying at all.

It's basically a kids thing...modifying on a budget or for no budget!

With in my opinion. You are removing a function of a car that is useful. Really don't see the point to get rid.
