ok so my heater blowers are pathetic! when its raining its impossible to demist the car. its almost dangerous! in the receipts i have with the car i can see a new motor has been installed about 2 years ago. it just seems like there is almost no air coming through to the windscreen!

is there anything i can do to improve this?

I'd say the distribution pipes from heater to vents have either failed or are disconnected

The dash board cover can come unglued over time and start to cover up the vent holes, you can get inserts to stop this happening. Look at the slots and see if they are covered or perhaps you have inserts fitted then you need to check the hoses feeding the air are fitted.
Dash inserts look like this, it shows them in a picture in the ad.

Is there any heat coming at all from any vents.. could be the adjustment cable has popped off, just pull the vent facia off.... also the dash is shaped to vent air upwards and misfitted dash like mine does force air upward to vents, so with facia off you should see that dash shape is in the blower
