Hi

Don't know if this is just my crazy mind but I've never noticed on my dash display before, it's like a mirror reverse image on the speedo and clock underneath the main dials. Here are some images. Is this normal ?

When I looked at your pics I thought, like you, that it looked odd.

However there are lots of pics here which show that it's perfectly normal (including my own dash!):

BTW I've had my car for 13 months so it just goes to show that the mind can play tricks on us all.   The power of suggestion is strange.

I can't believe I've not noticed it before, I thought the screen had gone 😂. The mind has well and truly been playing tricks

I only noticed it a couple of months ago ( three months after delivery ).

To me it was a change which puzzled me !
