Oh I'll have a wee play with it. I very rarely dismiss anything out of hand!
I agree. You shouldn't be allowed to fiddle with either a mobile nailed to the dash or a factory fitted satnav either. My phone stays in my pocket when driving except for when it's in satnav mode in which case it's in it's holder and the only time i touch it is to turn it off after i've arrived. I don't have 'connectivity' so if i get a call, i just ignore it. Given that 99% of my mates just text and it would say who it was from. If it doesn't then it's probably some snot trying to scam me or sell something so i'd ignore it anyway.Quite! Try typing in "Villeneuve D'Asq" or somesuch without taking your eyes off the road much.
Mad!
It doesn't look like you've received a solid answer yet so;
right now I have a Ram mount long arm connected to the side of the binnacle (I have the Raptor steel binnacle housing) but I'm going to modify a mount to move it to the top of the windscreen frame.
I'll get pix of my current set up later.
Before the firewars flare up again, my iPhone is my speedometer/odometer for now as well as the satnav for the rare occurrence I need it.
I'm keen on someone texting whilst driving a Series though.

Aren’t you missing an interior rear view mirror though.

It would have had a rear view mirror. U.K. legal require for that age is probably min of 2 mirrors. Either 2 wing or 1 interior + 1 wing

Nope, one mirror in any position.

The .gov site doesn’t agree with you. Cars pre 1978 need an offside plus either an internal Or near side. But the total minimum is 2 mirrors.
An internal rear view mirror would be of no use in a Landy that you can't see out of the back of, like my 101 ambulance for example. I'm pretty sure the only legal requirement is one on the driver's side.
Ha ha, presses 'post reply', scrolls up and reads the post above... AND stands corrected... Two it is then

MoT is a check it isn’t the underlying regulation as a rule. Suspect this is buried in the Construction & Use Regs somewhere. As for misleading. It reads clear enough and is published on the .gov website. So I’d assume likely a good reliable source.
