How is your trip computer display set up?

I've had Audi's for the past 11 years and the B8 certainl has more info than any of those before and lots of selections per page (e.g. mpg, avg mpg, speed, avg speed, range etc).
I have a MY2010 so of course have the extra page and all the extra options for the Stop/Start Economy etc. I've also enabled the lap timer/oil temp page so I've ended up with loads of choice.... oh and of course the Nav page, the phone page (not really used) and the music page!
It's great to have choice and it depends entirely on what I'm doing and what's displayed.
It's not uncommon for me to have Instant mpg and Avg mpg display as I've been showing my wife how driving style massively affects comsumption amd then other days the digital speedo is just what's called for.
There's certainly plenty of info there if you want it.

I have the display on the instantaneous and average mpg. I'm not too bothered by how tightly packed the analog speedo is to use the digital speedo. I do reset trip computer 2 every fillup to get the average mpg per tank. It's running about 1-2 mpg higher than my manual calc.

It is possible to enable some of these pages on the premium packages via vcds tweaks. The only things you won't be able to get is the digital speedo page and the wiper stalk button to quickly switch between pages (you'll do that via the car setup menus). It's also possible to swap out the stalk - search around, both have been done & documented.
I find myself typically using the following:
1) when starting, the lap timer page so that I can see when the oil has warmed up
2) once the oil has warmed up and I can step on it, the digital speedo with avg2 mpg displayed in the bottom.
