Toeing wing mirror needed for Roverfest

kevin75tourer · 31st July 2022, 21:12

I have decided at the last minute to take a caravan to Roverfest to save traveling backwards and forward over the three day and be with friends that are also camping. I have never pulled the caravan before with the 75 or indeed any car as if was brought in march 2020 as a COVID containment unit. I have just connected it up to the 75 to pull it round the back to give it a first wash in two and a half years and even without getting into the car I realised I would need some extension wing mirror.

My car is a 2005 with power folds which I do not want to mess up.

A long shot as the is not a lot of time for postage does anyone near Cambridge/Huntingdon /St Neots/ Royston or possible Peterborough have a suitable set I could either burrow for next week end or Buy. Alternatively what would people recommend anything Halfords or the like may have. If I cannot get anything suitable I will probable end up going in my Van rather than Moonshine Rover 75.

I feel really stupid but my mind has been on other stuff like helping to run the Rover Coupe Owners Club and Organising another event as well as being a late comer on the Roverfest organising committee

Hi. Firstly, 2 questions
Can you turn off the powerfolds
have you got a caravan sales place near you
Have a look at the range of mirrors that are sold by Maypole. These are the type I use on my 75 saloon. I have the clamp on type and they are shake and wobble proof. There is just enough room above the mirror glass to clamp onto the body and they dont mark the paintwork/chrome. These are more reliable than the strap on type in my experience.

Just had a look at the Milenco mirrors. They look to be good too. Shown in the 3rd pic.
