Certain cars with distracting interior windshield reflection bug

On some cars, there is a bug with the windscreen reflections where the bottom part of the windscreen reflects the road surface in very low resolution on the inside of the windscreen. This is very off-putting and is made worse in snowy or night conditions as it creates a glow effect. I found the attached video on YouTube of this happening on the Ford Focus RS Rally 2001.

I've experienced this with the following cars but am not sure if this is all of them: Ford Focus WRC '99, Ford Focus RS Rally 2001, Peugeot 206 Rally, Lancia Stratos. It was also there on the Citroen C3 WRC but I believe it has been somewhat rectified. 

The best way to reproduce this is to choose a snowy night stage in Monte Carlo, Sweden or Norway and drive in first person mode. This is particularly bad on the two Ford Focus' as the headlights illuminate the reflection.

  • Very bad in Citroen C4 (WRC 1997-2011 class) also and can be much more cars. Especially if u run car reflection quality ultra-low (as it's very demanding setting) it creates huge white blob that shakes like crazy (could cause issues to persons with sensitivity to flashing stuff etc).

    This has been noted so many times, it'd be nice if we could at least get an acknowledgement that they're working on it :/

    There is a sort-of fix, add the below code to the bottom of your engine.ini file and set car reflections to ultra low.

    r.AllowGlobalClipPlane=0

    Cheers. Sadly I'm on Xbox, so there's no fix. I just hope they fix the two MK1 Focus'. It makes them very unappealing to drive, especially with the headlights on.
