I get that JLR has lots of issues to go through, but at some point, one of the OTA updates may bring those features to my Defender. Given how critical the battery is, I have to imagine that one is high up on their "to do" list... I can hope!
I wouldn't get your hopes up. JLR has been against accessory gauges since, well, forever. I think its dumb too, but the clock is there as a throwback to older models that had an analog clock, and the car is there as a placeholder for a blank screen if the driver chooses not to have anything selected in the instrument cluster. I like the analog clock. One of my passions is collecting mechanical watches, and occasionally I'll switch up my gauge cluster to show the clock.
