Could anyone advise us what sort of towing mirrors will fit our S-Max? The gap at the top of the mirror is quite small so not sure if a clamp type will fit (we are new to this if you hadn't guessed!).

You might be a candidate for the sucker type of mirrors.

There are plenty of posts with differing opinions on ukcs.

May be an option if there is no space for the clamp types.

Stick "towing mirrors" in 'search' and you will find loads.

Did you ever get any BensonBunny? I've just got an Smax and would be interested to see what works.

Yes we did. I think they are Milenco Aeros or something similar (OH is going to try and look them up for you). We bought them from the dealer when we picked up the caravan and as Simon23 suggested tried them before we bought them. Probable not the cheapest way but at least we knew they fitted.We have been pleased with them, they fit well and are stable.
