Ive never seen it on my cars, altho it might not be on the high series - they have a picture of the car that shows what door/boot/bonnet/fuel flap is open.

Anyone got a picture of this fuel door msg, interesting.

I know what you mean, looks very clean and modern looking.
High series have many more markings on the dials and use italics font in comparison.

I beleive the late EL (Hybrid) and onwards received the Fuel Door arrow :D

Nope. mine is a 96 EL and it had the arrow. I hated it!
its like, "DUH! I've had the car for a year, and I still don't know where the fuel door is!"

I love my EF dials :-)
