Just looking through CC and came on the article about bivr (Or whatever its called)
How come they had to remover the side repeaters from the A pillar to the wing on the B and yet the pickup had modern mirrors with the repeaters fitted it like a lot of new cars??

Presumably the pick-up went through the same commercial vehicle version of the test we're aiming to put my Pop through Tony. Has to have side repeaters, but I don't think there's any stipulation on exactly where they go.

The door handle got in the way of seeing the side repeater at certain 'angles of visibility'.
There is a stipulation on where the side repeaters go but they are not tested on the Goods test but they need to be there for road use under C&U.
