I’ve recently sold my Fleurette A class, it had the same mirrors on it. The makers name is on a raised area in the middle of the outer casing it’s 3 letters and upside down. Try a brass rubbing technique to read it. I did and Google gave me the details.

I bought our ‘new’ mirror from here at a much lower price. Ours was a different A Class mirror than yours but it might be worth a look.

Thanks for that I can see on mine what looks like a large C with a U and S, all upside down. I'll send some photos to Magnums and see if they can help. Regards Steve King

When I had a Rapido the coach style mirrors were made by Arcol I think.

Thanks, I thought it might be them but couldn't find anything similar on their website. Mind you van is 13 years old so probably no longer made.

Found out that they were made by french company called Vision Systems, but they were bought by another company a while ago, and the new owners decided mirrors were not for them. So no spares or replacements. Looks like at some point I'm going to have to change both mirrors, arms, mountings, electrics. Could be expensive.

Just remembered, when I worked for a Bedford main agent, if you ordered a replacement truck mirror, it came boxed as a "Vision Assembly"

It was Magnum who told me they had been bought out and no longer supplied them!
