Does my 182 Cup have them and if so do they come on with the heated rear window?

If it has them they will indeed come on with your heated rear window.

Yep the 182 Cup definitely has heated wing mirrors, as mentioned above they're switched on when you press the rear de-mist button.

Because its more money

Fords are very common with heated front windscreens on the "Ghia" models

Do these dry the condensation on the mirrors fairly quickly? If so I don't think mine work as they are still wet after a 15min drive to work with the heated rear window on, and they don't feel warm to the touch??

Should have cleared in that time I would have thought.

Mine will clear condensation off the mirror usually inside of a minute, there a great feature for when there condensationed up and you can't see out them.
Not sure you'd actually be able to feel any warmth from them though, well I can't anyway.

all clios from 1998 on have them (as long as they have electric mirrors)

Thanks all, looks like mine have never worked from new.
Trip to the stealers then!
