Don't Judge, But We're Geeking Out On This Neat Windscreen Washer Funnel Design
At the risk of sounding spectacularly nerdy, this is a neat little design, isn’t it? It’s Skoda’s latest ‘Simply Clever’ solution (previous efforts include fuel filler cap-mounted ice scrapers, neat boot dividers and a phone/key holder storage device that slots into the cup holder), and it’s so, erm, simple and clever, that it’s a wonder no one has thought of it before.
Looks fairly ordinary in the image above, but pop it open, and boom: as you can see below, it becomes a neat little funnel.
If you’ve ever misjudged with a full bottle of screen wash and slopped a load of the stuff down the side of the filler neck and into the 10mm socket-sucking abyss that is your engine bay, you’ll appreciate this little invention.
It’ll be available first on the new Scala hatchback, before being rolled out to other models eventually.
Growing up on a diet of World Rally Championship highlights and lengthy Gran Turismo 2 sessions, a life in cars was as good as inevitable for Matt.

All the thought that went into that washer fluid cap, and they still have a stick to hold the bonnet when it’s open.
ah yes. more brittle plastic that breaks after some years, just what you want on a VAG car, because they never have enough of it
Is anyone considered to cut the top half of a mineral water bottle as a substitute?
Finally! A solution, now I want cover my engine in screen wash! Lol
I just have a glass jar and a manual foot pump
