There was an article in the BMW Car Club magazine a few years ago about ergonomics. The author was talking about an old Jag he'd had. He said the British described it as having "the controls fall readily to hand" and on his Jag, at his fingertips without having to stretch, were two rows of identical switches. But one couldn't tell whether one was turning on the lights or folding the roof down. He said, "The British solved this problem in their own inimitable fashion by having everything those switches were connected to made by Lucas."
