Also, arguably my least favourite dash was the analogue one in the Xtrail I used earlier this year for a 4,000km round trip. Not because of the dials, but because it was positioned above the centre console, in a cost cutting exercise so blatant they didn't even bother switching the tachometer and fuel/volt gauges around for RHD markets (strange, as Nissans should be originally RHD).
The part that makes it a interesting for this discussion is that Nissan put a second large glovebox opening upward above the steering wheel. In the early 2000s this was simply a cubby thieves wouldn't know existed. But in 2015, it's an awesome spot to install an IPad for GPS, OBDII info etc right in the line of sight
