Early style door mirror

I think £25 is fair considering how rare they must be now? Mirror glass is fine, it's just dust that you can see on there.

Egg. Face. On.

Ok, I better find out what it is then :lol:

edit: Well I found this but most of the pictures on google appear to be much bigger. However, this looks about right?

That's not a Mk1 (ok Pre '82MY MacP) mirror - it's too rectangular, not big enough and the mounting bracket isn't rectangular.

If it was a Volvo mirror then it'd have 'Volvo' stamped on it somewhere, but I don't think it is from any Volvo.

Interesting, it came in a bag full of old bits with another mirror. Ah well, guess i'll try and flog it on RR.

Aye, that's true. Mk2.5's ('84MY) gained the interior adjustable type at the same time they got rid of the quaterlights

To be fair, the thread title is accurate.
