Do you have any suggestions for readjusting the wing mirror on my Range Rover Evoque?
I am an elderly lady driver of 5-feet 1-inch only. Over the last years I have had three very satisfactory Mercedes-Benz MLs, but since they have grown too big for my needs, I took delivery of the new Range Rover Evoque last week. It is a lovely, lovely car, comfortable and drives beautifully, but the offside door mirror completely blocks my view when turning right. The mirror is flush with my face and I am at maximum seat height. I hope to work my way round this problem in time, but would welcome your suggestions. At the moment I am spinning my head in all directions but don’t get an overall view when turning. Should this car display a warning - 'not suitable for drivers under 5-feet 1-inch'?

Many thanks for that. It is the first owner/driver feedback I have received about the Evoque and this is probably an unforeseen problem. But there is no substitute for very carefully looking around all the obstructions to your vision when exiting side roads and entering roundabouts.
