I like these as featured in the UltraVW with the yellow cabrio and the beach girls on the front page. The range is a bit pricey, but looks great!

A set of VDO gauges will also set you back a few grand and they aren't even digital! But you're right, the price is a bit too much with our exchange rate.
I'll just dream about them..
