It is possible to find out whether your car is fitted with ABS or other systems, by making a note of the VIN (vehicle identification number) and asking a dealer, not the one you bought the car from though. If they are obliging they will enter the VIN number into their computer and it will show whether you have it or not.

Always use a glass cleaner which is designed specifically for automotive windscreen application

It has greatly reduced the misting up inside the screen which is greatly improved things as the heater/demister is awful due to the diesel engine being slow to warn up unbless under load.
