Peugeot 2000hate

 

I had the fancier 2008 on hire for 6 months. It had blue lighting around the dials, and a TFT rather than segmented display. I quite liked it! It also had wavy LED light strips in the headlining which I loved.

 

In fact generally, ambient lighting is a really nice touch. Our Merc has orange light strips across the dash that shine down, and my old Focus had red "submarine" lights up by the rear view mirror that gave just enough light to be able to see how many sweets are left in the bag at midnight on the M25

Here is the super extensive and well equipped dash of the Corolla:

And the full cockpit experience:

Bonus shot for those who appreciate a proper gearbox:

Time to update my post with added tachometer and replacement gear shifter shroud.

Nah, just adds to the delightfully slightly shonky nature of the car, doesn't it...

Numbers applied to the dial using the same method employed to adorn this with holes.

 

I mean, they made an effort with the speedometer. It shows symmetry and a certain degree of panache (even if it doesn't actually fit in the aperture it was designed for). The tacho was given to the work experience kid, who was told to make it look good in MS-Paint.
