Ha ha - yep almost forgot about that! Yes - my Riley has C-N-H. The stag has a
blue and red sector.
However - just to re-emphasise - I've seen British cars from the 50's that had
temps in Celsius (or Centigrade). The speedos had mph only (much like todays
speedos - gone full circle if you pardon the pun!).
I didn't realise we used C way back then. It made me realise two things:
1) The UK has always been comfortable mixing C with imperial2) Despite 'F'
starting to be written off back in the 50's and possibly before - it seems
quite hardy when you think that it is still quoted in 2010 (albeit occasionally
secondary)

By the way - even cars from the fifties have 'C' on the car temp gauge.
