BMW e36 320i first car project

Okay so this is the car's service interval guage. The small dashes were actually green boxes which went off one by one showing the time elapsed since last service and it was showing the a new service is due.
I had already had the service done but since this car is OBD 1, the tool to reset this gauge is not available anywhere and people don't even care. But I did find a way later on and did manage to reset it

That slider button beside the gear shifter is the gearbox mode selector. It has S for sports, E for economy and a low traction mode which really helps if you are stuck in ice or sand. Already tried that a couple of times Also note that the power window buttons are on the center console as well. It was like that in the next gen 3 series as well. I have found that to be more convenient then buttons on doors. However there is no way to lock the windows like in modern cars but thats okay, i don't have any kids
