    Car makers told to ditch distracting touchscreens will be penalised for models that don't have simple button controls

    Hello one and all. This is just a check really, but are the temperature 'icons' below the touch pads on the bottom of the infotainment section supposed to illuminate at night? Trying to see them at night is a real issue. I know I could go into the climate and change it there but it seems...
