What car dash is this? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

This one has me stumped.

Right hand drive with MPH so I am thinking, British. Not a Nissan...but I wonder what it is?

I like to think I know by looking at a dash cluster what car it is...but not this one..

It may be a British AUDI...but again, stumped.

Just curious is all...

Nice clean layout..

You're not going to believe it when I tell you...

It's a UK-market Chrysler Neon, a '00+ (2nd generation) model.

The scalloped design at the bottom of the cluster, oval defroster grille, and odd steering wheel spoke placement could come from no other car.

Didn't see that coming, did ya?

Yep, did not think that! What I can see of the hood was almost PT cruiser like..

For the truly bored...look at this horrible collection of cars.

The Buick 75 takes the cake with the lime green interior..

Wow I wasn't expecting that. I lived in England for 2 years and I dont think I seen a single UK spec Chrysler let alone neon on the road

I'm not surprised... they cost way too much for what you get over there. Here in the US buying a Neon as a commuter car or club racer makes sense because they're dirt cheap... so cheap that even if you get stuck with repair bills you're still paying less than a Civic or Corolla.
