I was sitting in a S111 coupe today and notice an auxiliary dial calibrated in Nm.
I presume this is meant to indicate engine torque. Is the torque actually measured or is it merely extrapolating from the engine revs?
A nice car and sorely tempted to buy.

I've not come across this gauge - as yet; but torque is often seen as one of the live-data parameters of the ECU, calculated from the datastream that it's using to fuel the engine, so it's quite possible that it's fairly accurate.

It's not an oil pressure gauge is it?

No it is torque. Calibrated in Nm (x10)
