Mileage Display - remove
I'm fed up of my cars mileage glaring at me each time I get in. I know it's done 80k but Id rather not be reminded of the fact each time I get in.
Is there a menu setting or other function where I can turn it off or show the trip mileage instead or something Cheers Shinjuku |

No.
Trip milage is resettable but total milage is always counting up. Paul. |

That`s kind of a funny issue to have since odometers have been visible on all cars for at least 100 years. I wish I could get those trip mileage readouts to disappear since they are totally useless if you aren`t using them.

What's wrong with 80,000 miles ? Your Volvo is still on its prime !

I was thinking the same thing.
You shouldn't think of it as as negative thing but as an achievement then it won't bother you so much.

I baught my P1 with 104,000 miles on the clock and then put another 100,000 on it before selling it to a neighbour who now has 230,000 on the clock. Still on original clutch, still does regular runs of 200 + miles to visit his family and still only gets one service a year. Paul. |

Don't think of it is the mileage - think of it has how much money you have saved by not buying a new car every 2 years?

True. Thanks for the positive messages all. It drives well - so well in fact that I think of it as a relatively new car. Just the number reminds me otherwise. It's true that we don't buy new cars for exactly the reason if not loosing tons of money in depreciation.
