I wonder how much it will go for?
:wink:
-
Yeah lol, I could see them going for stupid money for a while!

Looks sweet. Have seen this before but it had a high gloss finish to the surround. This appears to have a matt finish and would suit the Golf Mk V interior better.

I did a translation and its in the czech republic and contains this phrase
"VOLKSWAGEN ex-factory price"
maybe its come out of the back door of a factory? :laugh:
its is the same of the other one, i.e. with gloss surround, its just you cant quite see it as theres plastics over it.
-
I have emailed the seller with some questions about this item. Will post once I've had a response.

So did I last night - no response as yet.
-
No doubt awaiting translation :wink:
Just out of interest, I asked the following:
What will be shipping costs to UK ?
Can you confirm that this unit will fit into a 2007 specification VW Golf GTI.
My car currently has the MFD2 DVD SatNav - will this unit simply replace the factory unit with no modifications ?
Do you have any user manual with the unit ?
Is a navigation disc supplied ?
What finish is the plastic surround of the unit - high gloss or matt finish ?
Do you have a buy it now or reserve price for the unit ?
Will you be selling any more of these units in the future ?

Good questions. With regard to the Nav disc - I assume there is none as the navigation data is now all stored on the 30GB hard disk in the unit.
Response I got:
Item: VW Navigation RNS-510 DVD neueste Version NEU! MP3-DVD (230146256905)
This message was sent while the listing was active.
skodateile is the seller.
Hi

Think maybe ill hold off for a UK seller. Think max I would pay is 1k. :undecided: Would love to have it though!!! Been tempted by one the the Kenwood Double Dins but I prefer the original factory fit look and the kenwood is likely to attract more chance of someone breaking my window!
If there is no antenna for these ones on ebay where would I get one as I dont have sat nav at the moment? MFD one from ebay might fit ok?
-
Agree the price is a bit steep. On closer inspection the facia immediately surrounding the display is high gloss finish - doesn't really go with the matt/rubberised GTI dash unless you want to go down the carbon trim route :laugh:
Guess I'll stick with the standard factory fit for now - nowt really wrong with it but I like the touch screen function and would love to have a 3D map display.
Standard antenna for factory SatNav is the sharks fin. If non on eBay, try a specialist VW parts supplier.

Hello dear, if you're reading :embarassed:

If anyone wants a really cheap sat nav solution, I've just got A Nokia n95 as my upgrade phone from o2 for £30. Includes built in gps antenna and uk maps, £5 for a months license up to £47 for 3 years to use the voice commands, add a car cradle for £50 et voila, sat nav for £95!! :grin:
Looks fairly smart too, better than a tom tom stuck to your windscreen!

I used the sat nav on my N95 this week to navigate round some of the floods in South Yorkshire. I have been really pleased with it, some of the route planning is a little strange ( If you know a short cut). Mind you the the RNS- 510 does look good. Wouldn't pay nearly a grand for one though. :smiley:
-
Some of the route planning on the n95 is a bit nuts, from m11 to ruislip, north west london it took me direct rather than via the m25, however to get to paddington station it was superb. It pays to have a rough idea where your going and leave it to do the tricky bits at the end lol!
Alternatively you can apparently add tom tom software to the phone, possibly slightly better than the in built nokia version.

Unit is shown in Mk V GTI and doesn't look bad. Still expensive at the moment though :cry: :cry:
