I posed the question of the awful rear view mirrors, both interior and exterior to my dealer only yesterday and the reply I got it was down to regulations.
I have changed the interior mirror, so will get the round exterior ones soon. Thanks for the advice on various brands.

It's impossible to adjust the near side factory fit square mirror to give any usable vision so like others I've fitted round mirrors, in my case from Librands. (I also replaced the rather unattractive interior mirror) The round mirrors give an excellent field of vision but...... at the risk of being controversial, aesthetically I prefer the square mirrors. In my view, pun fully intended, I think the square mirrors better suit the raffish lines of the car. A bit like the MGF in the 1950s which I believe was also supplied with square mirrors.  Andy

I now have the Librands round ones fitted and agree the field of vision is much improved , my nearside rear wing is much safer now i can see where its heading when parking.

I waited so long before changing and wished I had done it earlier.

The square one aren‘t only difficult to adjust, they also disadjust themself. It took a time and I switch over to some bargain from German „Tante Luise“… have a look here: https://www.louis.de/artikel/univer...45?list=9dd94528ab253124212b33fcdb99dd2eI cut off the stem to a straight one, with a little tube of alloy, brass or plastic it works very good.

Convex door mirrors are a must. But if your central wind screen mirror is flat, change that to a convex one too. It made a huge difference, more substantial than the door mirror change - at least on the passenger side. The mirror comes in two sizes, the smaller one will do. The headrests limit the rear wiew anyway, so the larger one does not give much of an advantage.
