No ... they're definitely on (front & back) when reversing, as you still gotta watch your front, if say you're reversing in between two concrete pillars in a car park (as I do).
In fact ... if you've used Park Assist to parallel park the car, they will automatically be turned on (again front & back) when you start the car and trying to get out. I think it is only based on the speed of the car as you drive off that it then turns itself off.
Car is definitely clean team_v, cause I use Nanolex. 
But cdogg's point is very valid and plausible (and thanks), especially since I do have Euro plates!
However that surely can't be my fault?
Again they fcuken picture all their cars with Euro plates and front sensors in their glossy brochures!
And I didn't come across a disclaimer that said "our sensors are crap and can be rendered useless if you install Euro plates". 
Besides ... it's not like it did this on Day 1. Sometimes it's the left centre one ... and other times it's the right centre.
