Driving mirrors

[Mike Costigan]

One vote for each type of glass; I feared as much!
 

That was bound to be the result!

Personally I prefer convex mirrors to give me the wider view. I always replace flat mirrors if they are fitted to a 'new' car - but I am also aware that when I have sold the car, some new owners immediately change them for flat versions. I've even bought back a couple of pairs of mirrors that I had previously fitted! 

I think if you check your mirrors on a very frequent basis, then the wider field of view is an advantage, whereas if you check your mirrors less frequently, perhaps the 'true' depth of field of the flat glass is more important.

Each to his own, as they say ...
