virtual cockpit on the Audi costs an additional £400. Would any of you pay for the virtual cockpit if it were an option only?
On the Golf I may be tempted as last on list that if had enough ££ left to afford option. Always thought the Golf dials could be better, cleaner.
On the S3 I would stay with the dials, as really like the S3 dials.
Think virtual cockpit is only an option as it has that new shiny tech allure, but will soon become standard as it benefits the car makers more as pretty sure the screens will be a lot cheaper than dials to make in long term
Definitely not craving screens though as see far to many of them in my day to day and it will just be another screen and O/S to me.
The R dials are really nice.
The contrasting border and blue needle illumination looks quite classy.
The only downside of them is that it's hard to see the high beam warning light against the blue highlights occasionally. I get the odd flash!
