It makes perfect sense, Jose, if you drive your Jaguar in the rain. But why would you or anyone do that?😊

I was thinking the same thing I spent a ton of time and effort getting my wiper switch to work correctly (all the positions do what they are supposed to do) fully realizing that since I never drive in the rain it was kind of silly to ensure they work perfectly.
Sov211 is the authority on how they came from the factory (overlapping the chrome trim) but I am with Jose that it looks better with a shorter blade that sits entirely on the glass. Bill, notice that Sov211's factory correct car has straight wiper arms and not angled. And they sit nice and flat.

Now a 1992 V12 VDP (#6/100):
Another 1992 V12 VDP:
Another 1990 V12 VDP:
While the above are all late V12 cars, the earlier LHD XJ6 models had the same wiper position.
