Abstract

A rear view mirror (1) for a motor vehicle comprising a metal-coated substrate (2) which forms a main mirror surface (4) and is provided in a subarea with an additional blind spot mirror (6) is to provide a particularly high reproduction quality of the reflected image, while production costs are kept down. For this purpose, according to the invention, the additional blind spot mirror (6) is bonded onto the side of the substrate (2) remote from the direction of light incidence on the substrate (2) by a transparent, light-resistant adhesive.
