Added the pictures shown below to the first post. Those are not mine (except for the first one), but give you an impression about the awesome Dolomites. Extraordinary place.

Great write up and even better pictures. Thanks for sharing. I've got to take another trip to Europe soon.

Thanks. I got the Austrian vignette before I got on any Austrian Autobans. I basically stopped at the first gas station that had that sign. I only drove on some small back roads in Switzerland going up to Stelvio Pass. Either way I'm hoping all is good with those.

At night: readability perfect. In daylight: readability OK. One minute later: less daylight (entering the woods) and the grey analog dials and orange needles (speedometer + rev counter) become harder to read (please note that the picture shows better lighting than in reality): Picture taken yesterday right before the camera could focus and adjust the light. Pretty dark above the OBC: Readable ? Yes. Comfortable to read (especially with sun glasses) ? No. You won't see such poor readability of instrument dials happening on modern cars of BMW's competitors (Porsche, Audi, Mercedes, etc.). BMW should address this, definitely.
