In the 325i SE i've just bought, the right mirror is really magnified as well as the rear view mirror...
Is this pretty standard in E30's, as it's kind of doing my head in with everything appearing so close

Drop down to third gear and they'll appear a lot further away again

Even more reason to ignore the mirror, drop a cog and pay attention to where you're going.maxfield wrote:Until you see blues and twos in your mirror.magpie wrote:i prefer to look where i'm going, not where i've been

Magnifying door mirrors were a rare option on E30s, but I've never heard of a magnifying interior mirror on one.
