Dusty - do you mean you want to see other types of Griffith dash?

Edited: Opps...I meant to quote mrmaggit, never mind!


Mine too. I do like the wood and have driven a couple with a shiny dash. Was wondering what the alternatives were.

Here is my standard one

The best feature of my dash is the Rolf Harris Wobble Board effect I get everytime I press the Headlamp button


Altogether now..."Tie me kangaroo down sport....Tie me kangaroo down....Let me Griff have a Growl girl...."

After getting in to work and been sat at my desk for 5 mins I heard "Adam, is that you new car rolling down the car park?"

Fortunately it rolled one car length and didnt touch anything.
If I'd parked it in my usual place it it would have been long gone and resting against a wall!

I since learnt about the effect of brake disc size and temperature, thanks to fish. (fish the PHer, not some battered cod or something silly like that!)

Edited to add: The ones that saw it made sure that absolutly everyone in my office knew about it though.
If it had happened in the Golf no one would have said a word!
