i know but the thing is he has two kids and i do feel a bit sorry for the guy as i wouldnt like to be in his situation so i think ill just ask him for the money for the mirror and get it sorted else where. I can believe the price vx want for a mirror it works out everyting included £350 + vat what a joke unless they are gold plated

Had my drivers door mirror smashed off by a lorry a while back and was quoted around £350 by VX for a replacement. Ended up getting one from member on here in the Parts For Sale section. Cost me £60 plus the cost of getting it sprayed to the correct colour. :y

Yes they're fairly rare, the ones for the pre-facelift models are about £10 ea, facelift ones about £50 ish. I remember phoning up 50plus breakers before I got one last year.  :-X
