Well at the end of the day try haggle him down for it, it'll be some short-circuit or something somewhere.
You can get a single wiper storm conversion kit from ebay for £75 so...decide if the car is worth spending £75 on if you get it to fix the problem.
But if you go to a local breakers/scrap, you can probably pick up standard wiper motors and everything for £15-£20 or something.

It will be a short in the wiring or the stalk/relay.

As long as the rest of the car is relatively tidy, can't really go wrong for £350.
It won't be a massive problem to fix anyway, you don't need the washers much this time of year anyway

i think i will try a new stalk and relay first, and i know there isn't much call for wipers in this weather but it's best to be safe.
