I have Bosch Super Plus on one car and just put Michelin Stealth on another. Both excellent.

If you can beg, borrow or steal a Halford's trade card, wiper blades are about a third of the posted price with it.

I've just bought and fitted two of these Unipart ones, seem fine, I tend to try and replace them once a year anyway. £3.07 each with the code PAYDAY50 at the minute. Free P&P too!

The last wipers I brought were Champion from DMGRS. Unfortunately they were a one time offer. They have lasted the best part of two years & are only now showing signs that they need replacing.

Bosch Aero flats on my ZT, just over 2 years and no signs of smearing degradation, not the cheapest but I would buy them again.

I use the Bosch retrofit flat ones. Marvellous.
Search fleabay for Bosch AR550S and you'll get a set ostensibly for another car (e.g. the citroen berlingo) for far less than they're offered for the 75. It seems that the fleabay traders are wise to 75 owners lavishing their hard-earned on their cars! Also note that for Mk1 tourers the correct rear wiper is usually sold for the Ford Focus. Bosch themselves only list the facelift one, despite still making the correct item

Having tested a wide selection for work, Bosch Aerotwin by far the best, longest lasting, quietest, no smearing, flat baled no lift at speed.
