No there great just the colours they choose are **** like the green and orange, I can't stand it, I can't really stand the red either but the cluster looks awesome.

They chose green and orange for a reason, better night vision. And TBH, i don't mind it. The red VE dashes however look fugly.

thought it was that green was the least suseptable to colourblindness, red being the most common colour people cant see.

Not sure on that, but i do know thats why green is used in most (if not ALL) HUD's, from aircraft to headgear even to the new VF calais!

Can't agree about the HK or HJ panels with the awful strip speedo's. Proper instruments are circular, and maybe set into square recesses.

I also think the VY and VZ panels, particularly in Calais, look great.

The strip speedo, it's just classic.. But that's my opinion.

I've never driven a car with a strip speedo, but I've wanted one since I was a kid. They just look awesome.
