I have a Ford with heated windscreen and mirrors.
Me too BUt!! got a bad battery sooo hot water (well warmish)
Also, heated windscreens are all well and good, but who forgot to put heat trace wire on the pipes to the windscreen sprayers? By the time I got to work I had my head out of the window to look where I was going!

I voted for hot water, but actually use lukewarm water. For info, "luke" means "warm" so actually "lukewarm" means "warm-warm". Just thought I'd throw that in.

Garage.
Oh, alright I have a garage, a double one indeed, but it's rammed full of bikes 'n' tools, so no space for a car.
Cold water for me, hot water = a call to 0800 36 36 36

So do I (thats one reason why I stick with ford), but I still scrape.
I cant just sit there & let it thaw.
get Mrs to do it
opposite for me, i get to do both cars on the frosty mornings!
and use scraper, with the engines on. but i could only vote for one
Hee hee! lots of people think hot water will crack the windscreen, but it isn't true!
Apart from melting the frost, it gets the glass warm so it doesn't re-freeze or mist up again, it stays hot until after it's dry.
I use a drop of WUL in it.

I use warm water on a good windscreen, but if there is a stone chip on the screen would it crack ?

Do you not already have the engine running before the heated screen will switch on?
