    i'm not overly keen on the digi ones to be honest, but i supose it depends on what look you want to go for.
    i like to see the needle move about, i think its easier to get a reading, but thats just me!
    
    find out if a rev counter will work properly before you buy one. on some 1.0 and 1.1 i believe they only show half the actual revs. there was a big thing on SSC about it, but that was the old forum so it might have gone now.
    
    oil temp would be useful, but again, i dont think there is anywhere to put the sensor to get a temperature reading on a 1.1, only the VTS. i think!
    
    i've got volt gauge in mine and a vacuum gauge that i've mounted in the centre console. i'm not saying the vacuum gauge is exactly important, but it looks good lol
