Fully agree. The 75/ZT was not designed for driver visibility. The main reason the other half won't have any attempt at driving it. Possibly a good thing.
I use the mirrors and have reverse warning which is invaluable.

Forward visibility is poor also on right turns due to the door mirror position.
The above gripes plus the head banging possibilities of even a partially lowered driver's sunscreen are the only negatives in the whole package.

Love the car.

I parallel park forty-footers, but I'm thinking of reversing sensors too as I already have one dent in the boot from reversing into my P6.

You don't have any reference points on the saloon.

I find it easier when I have 21ft of tint tent hung on the back - it's dead easy then to know where the back of the car is
