I've never seen anyone mention this, but don't you find it really irritating that the bottom of the speedo needle obscures the trip meter when you're doing a moderate rate of knots?

VDO really shouldn't have let that one off the drawing board. <img border="0" alt="[nono]" title="" src="graemlins/nono.gif" />

Maybe it was designed for the US market, where the cars wouldn't reach such a rate of knots...
