However, to compensate, the wing mirrors are enormous. Really - they're brilliant.
It was a bit of an adjustment at first, but I'm used to it now, and don't feel that I suffer particularly. I use the wing mirrors now loads more than I used to in cars I had previously.
It's not just the spoiler that makes visibility poor: the back window doesn't have a wiper. It's coated with a water repellant stuff, which means rain runs off quicker than on an average car, and the areodymics help in that respect, too - but it only really works when the car is constantly moving.
On a motorway in the rain, it's spot on, you don't get a drop of rain hanging about. But in cities when you're forever waiting in traffic or at lights, you really do miss having a wiper.
