What is the dial on the right of dash supposed to show? I never had one on my normal Clios.
I assumed it was some sort of rev meter to give you an idea how much petrol / power is being gobbled up so never paid to much attention. Then today I noticed it was up to 5 (500/5000/50000?) when on the motorway even with no foot on the pedal. So, what is the point of it?
Sorry for my cluelessness

No no, furthest to the right, more right than the speedometer.

It is a rev counter dude, you don't need your foot on the pedal for the engine to turn...

But what is the actual benefit of it? Is it just to show you how much strain the engine is undergoing? Surely you can tell this from the engine noise?
No need to take the piss. I've just never driven a car that has one b4.
