Yeah, I was looking at that... the one with the engine crossed out is probably the Check Engine light... or maybe it's the "engine missing" light!

Sure looks like it. Could be OBD1, or Euro OBD[1|2], or even something unique to SA or just VWSA.

Yeah, the whole dash face looks like it's a different shape. Generally flat all the way down, instead of curled under like ours. More room for the glove box door, leaving the space under for additional storage. Also that wacky knob arrangement for the ventilation! Left knob, fan speed, middle hot/cold, and right... who knows? It must control both defrost and footwell outlets, but I can't imagine how. Indeed a Rube Goldberg device.

What I wouldn't give for a nice SA model. I really like those bigger windows.

Thanks for the pics Raimund!
