Just reading an article about the new RR ghost, beautiful looking car but, as stated in the write-up the wing mirrors just look ridiculously big and almost ruins the front angle profile of the car. This is apparently due to “some bureaucratic nonsense which demands (from 2011) that wing mirrors are sized to match the car”. How do these people come up with this sort of tosh, too much coffee and not enough to do!!!! You would think the fact that, (as found when the car was tested) forward quarter visibility being impeded would be far more important, not so it would seem. Hope Mr Noble has factored this into his design lol

A lot of new cars just look silly, here are two which I have seen with stupid large wing mirrors.

Gen 2 Cayman
370Z

I'm not sure he'll need to if he sells the Fenix as a low volume car with SVA approval (as he did with the Noble), or have the rules changed?

I presume you're referring to Lee, not Richard, as I'm pretty sure his doesn't have wing mirrors. wink
