St.Jude Posted January 13, 2020 Posted January 13, 2020 No photo at the moment, but I put LED bulbs on my Corolla's dashboard and the one that tells me how much fuel I've got flickers a lot. It's like a trance disco on my dashboard but only I'm invited.
reb Posted January 16, 2020 Posted January 16, 2020 I am a big fan of the 850 dash, just look at it: That's a proper dashboard. Though because I like distraction-free driving it normally looks like this: 11/10, if I do say so myself.

Zelandeth Posted January 23, 2020 Posted January 23, 2020 Have to admit that the Cactus is on the list of modern cars I like. Never driven one but we had two demonstrators through Chris' work and they seemed nice places to be and felt properly quirky like a Citroen should. Seemed quite well thought out as a practical car (echoes of Berlingo) and still pretty comfy. Only gripe we all had was the bloody touch screen. Still reckon they missed a trick by not offering it in black but with the cladding in really lurid colours. I'd like one in black with neon orange or yellow cladding.
Dan_ZTT Posted January 24, 2020 Posted January 24, 2020 I had one as a work rental a few times around 2016ish, I properly hated it, although I couldn't quite put my finger on why. That stupid screen didn't help.

Renault/Volvo engines in these later elite 2s used a Volvo instrument panel as below which is a pleasing set to read. early Elite 2 and prior models used bespoke equipment. I may be having the hire truck from Rent-a-wreck tomorrow so I’ll get a photo if I have.

reb Posted March 3, 2020 Posted March 3, 2020 In the C2 you can switch off almost all of the dash illumination. This is something I do quite often, made slightly pointless by the LED nightmare that is that stereo. I must do something about that. It does add to the mid 2000s hot* hatch experience rather well though.
