mmmm, dodgy '80s dashboards

[garethj]

To think - the internet is useful for more than just porn and Talbot Alpines!

 

Check out this guy's homage to '80s dashboards

Just imagine troubleshooting a bad connection on there nowadays

[Minimad5]

Jesus , that is crazy.Thanks for sharing

[scooters]

bllody hell - can you imagine trying to hit your hazards in a hurry with that lot?

[meggersdog]

I see there is no Toyota/Lexus Soarer dash on that site,probably because the bloody things never work and just go blank.

[scooters]

boy likes his renners - quite a few on the site

[Mr H Sceptre]

Loving the laptop set up in the GM El Camino! You could browse Autoshite whilst cruising down the freeway, all nice, safe and legal.

Jesus, that Uno dash board is similar to the Piazza's in quite a few ways, except the UK market Turbos had analogue dials. We never got the digital ones that would have finished off the interior a treat.

Can anyone name the red car, that can be seen throu' the second picture's window ?Looks like ford Teledials / dogleg alloys

I like this Nissan dash;

 

[Station]

I had an Astra GTE one in my mk3 Astra, they get old really quickly, and put the normal one in shortly after.

Ford Fairmont Ghia

The digital dash is my least favourite feature of the Espace. It was also my least favourite feature of my first Senator, and the main reason why my dad didn't buy my mum a new Twingo in 1993. I'm not a fan. I have to say though that I respect the sheer lunacy of the Lancia Orca dash...

That's a coincidence, I've just been looking at that in an 80s copy of Motor.

Sorry but that dash is just mad. It doesn't look like a real production car. Obviously the designer never grasped the concept of being 'minimalist'

Sorry to be pedantic BUT: Aren't these doglegs? :-

 

[FredTransit]

I would agree with that. The things with holes in em are cloverleafs.

[KruJoe]

What are these then, if not doglegs?

 

[whitevanman]

Black scrote has the dog legs, not sure what the ones on the red car are called, cloverleafs were the 4 holed horrors on early XR3's

[M'coli]

One set are xr3i doglegs, the others are RS turbo doglegs .

[uk_senator]

They were available in the UK, as was ABS, few people took the option though.

[flat4alfa]

This was my Trevi when it was on a dodgy earth connection day

 

 

It slept overnight and fixed itself.

[uk_senator]

So you dont think the Senator B dash is hi-tec enough eh?
