In the RHD Renault range only the Clio has LHD wipers, I believe. The RHD Peugeot 206 and RHD BMW 5 series have them too, so were not alone! :D

Actually its not that much of a cost saving on Renaults part. The current RHD Clios have a drivers side wiper that has a double arm to better sweep the upper corner of the windscreen. I cant imagine this to be a particularly cheap part to design and produce. LHD Clios dont have this, since the...
