    Syphon it out using a bit of tube or garden hose! or just use the wash wipers until its all gone!! Or get the garden hose and fill the bottle so it overflows, leave it for a while overflowing and then the dirty water will have been flushed out!!

    He said screenwash not coolant craggsy;)

    Pretty sure it'll be similar to the mk2 washer tank - likely held in with one, maybe two, plastic nuts - unscrew those and slide it out, unplugging the plug to the pump if you want to remove it all the way out of the car.
