Nearly caused a pile up joining the A38 today.
Thankfully the driver of the Mini I nearly shoved into the crash barrier was on the ball.
Feeling a lot less complacent now.
I now realise the blind spot is a bit bigger than I had assumed.
Do any of the standard citroen peugeot mirrors neatly assist with this?
Moral of the story?
Look over your shoulder & thank you to the Mini driver.

I bought these for my van:

Pretty good for £3 IMHO, you can adjust them for the best angle after you've stuck them on.
My van: 2008 Berlingo 1.6 HDi Enterprise - a bit ratty!

Another alternative is to replace the standard door mirror glass with a wide angle glass like this one.

I put one of these on my first B9 Berlingo and it solved the problem for me, my current B9 didn't seem to need it.
