Completely agree with the attention to detail.  Great to see some "air play"
in mainstream media.  Still, here are some "nit" observations from the
cockpit view..First, when running the car, I've found it beneficial to have
a key in the ignition - preferably one with a Rootes logo key fob.  The turn
signal indicator looks red vs green (although the ignition indicator looks
like a historically accurate faded red).   This Mark II apparently wasn't
delivered with an ammeter, but it does have a cigarette lighter.  To provide
a truly realistic Tiger driving experience, the water temp gauge should
remain perilously on the verge of overtemping versus staying comfortably at
mid-scale.  Also, the gas gauge shouldn't remain full for very long when
applying such a heavy pressure to the "loud" pedal.    Just hope Tiger lap
times are generally faster than the Pontiac Aztek.     

 

Cheers,
