Soft rev limiter/ red lights

[Mako V12V]

On my test drive of a 10 plate V12V back in July, I was informed it had a soft rev limiter and I seem to recall in the rev counter dial red bars started to appear as the revs increased above 6000 rpm.
However, mine doesn't appear to do this and I have these red lights in a different place - the small circular display above and in between the rev counter and speedo. This display also shows the red R when reversing.
So, has there been a redesign in this area and if so when was this done? Which versions do ppl have on here?

mine does it and that is also the way it was on my MY09 4.7 V8V that I traded in... no change since last year anyway.

Been like this from the beginning I think.

My MY07 V8 Coupe has exactly the same set up.

Sounds pretty much like its always been that way then! I think it's just a lot easier to get up there and light it up with a V12!

Must admit there is something about the car that makes you want to drive it fast. I never really felt the lure as strongly in the V8, but the V12 just keep willing you to press on.

With the sport button pressed the car calls you a wuss if you dont floor it!!

The rev limiter lights have always been in the GPID between the dials. You get a couple of bars as you near max revs and then 2 arrows telling you now is the optimun time to change up. Got to be quick though as that happens just short of the limiter.
