I am tall and the rear view mirror is right in the middle of my viewing area to the left.
A sweeping left bend and i cannot see anything without ducking under the mirror.
Every left view is filled with rear view mirror to the point that it is spoiling the drive.
Juctions are about trying to see past it before pulling out.
Basically it has to go, it is huge and perfectly placed in exactly the wrong position.
A mirror completely clear of the screen would be great as anything else would be at eye level.
Anybody had this problem and come across the perfect replacement mirror, i still want to have one but am used to driving without one but removal is not what i want.
 
Seat is at its lowest setting.
I might just remove it and see if i can get a smaller mirror that will connect to the passenger sun visor.
This is the only bad niggle i am having with the classic, the rest of the car i am happy with.
 
I'm 6'3" and whilst in the 110 the rear mirror does get in the way, i just look over hte top of it or duck down under it...part of the fun driving it....but in my classics, I don't recall having half as bad an issue....

How tall are you?
 
Same height, i never even noticed the mirror on my 110, the classic mirror must be bigger, closer and i think you sit higher with the viewing point the top few inches of the screen.
I live in a place with great views, left side of the screen is blocked, still a great car, i have a natural forward lean when driving which does not help.
Not a lot bothers me with land rovers but this does, i will change it for something better.
