I like the mirrors they have, wouldn't mind one for mine.

Pretty much what I'm aiming for with my 850 very very tidy.

That mustache was just pure genius. It's lost behind a pair of over riders on later cars.

BMC realised this eventually, that's why the Mini-K and later `Matic reverted to the clean simple look.

I hate cleaning around the overriders and budgie perches on the wife's S, it's so fiddly compared to my Matic. :lol:
