aussiepom Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 Hello all towed for the first time with the Edge well pleased with it very stable a 2 and half hour tow to Brighton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluepeter Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 Hi Aussie, Glad your liking the edge for towing, been on a few trips with my caravan and it never missed a beat, auto gearbox was a little slow changing down when turning onto a incline but other than that small detail no problems. Love the reversing camera when hooking up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeilRS Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 Having missed out on 2 sets on eBay bought a new set today- fit really well. Thanks folks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeanW Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 Sorry to hijack - but are the Milenco Aero's any good? I have a set of generic towing mirrors that are next to useless!! They vibrate and wobble and never stay where they were set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I believe it's a legal requirement and a combination of the standard mirrors and the aeros gives an unprecedented field of view. Especially when you're being tailgated as I was the other day coming back from West Wittering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeanW Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 My Mondeo is pretty much the same - I can see reasonably well with the standard mirrors - but I do like the little bit extra vision you get...unfortunately, my set are seriously naff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeilRS Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 I picked up the Milenco ones from my local caravan shop for £49.99. They were going for more than that second hand on e bay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aussiepom Posted April 3, 2017 Author Share Posted April 3, 2017 Yes the milenco mirrors are good I think I would go for the square lens ones now it seemed I was only getting 26 mpg towing coming home today Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluepeter Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 Just to add what kelvin says , it is a legal requirement to have towing mirrors on both sides of your car, fines are £50 for each mirror missing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
