Has anyone any experience of using a ‘mirror’ that clips on to your existing rear view mirror alongside a camera on the back of your car …currently mulling the idea over ….

No, but go on, I'm getting interested
Well that’s no good …I’ve got this new Rolls Royce and the chauffeur is getting on a bit and I don’t want him running over anyone’s veg plot ..especially if he drives your way

These new fangled gizmos make me want to swear but I expect that Mary Whitehouse mod will just beep beep beep beep the cusses out .

How soon is now?
My new car has one built in and I can’t get used to it. Still go with the mirrors and one arm over the passenger seat

My dad used to elbow me in the face when I was younger as I always had the middle seat and had a habit of leaning forward.
I've become over reliant on a reversing camera since my last 2 cars came with them, I doubt I'd get another car without one.

Is it the one that clips onto the rear view mirror?

I will find out tomorrow if I can get used to one as my nearly new car is being delivered and has a built in rear view camera.

I had one on a company van I used to use.
I found it very off putting and couldn't use it, I was taught to drive a long time ago and don't have the need for one.
Much easier to use my own judgement, it hasn't failed yet.

Originally the Swankers
Having a van that have no rear windows they are god send when parking it tight spots, i swapped the head unit for one with any inbuilt camera screen.
As said above, could not be with it now, become too reliant on it.
alongside a camera on the back of your car ?
Ah, so your second home you brag about is a caravan?

I suppose the motor home is technically the third home.

I must say, I'm impressed you're OAP hedge trimming business is doing well, seeing you've got a RR and driver.

A mate of mine bought a new Nissan van with a reversing camera. "What's it like I asked him?" "Absolutely brilliant" he replied "I got a really good look at the 8 metre skip I reversed in to!" They are very good IMHO but no substitue for old fashioned observation and a bit of common sense. He is a w@nker though to be fair!
