Golf mk8 / Re: GTI Edition 50 first press release

Have ye noticed that the “Discover Nav” is actually not standard equipment in the Edition 50 here? It’s down on the options list for about €1200. It’s a bit bizarre, considering it’s standard (I think) on most of the Golf range! I realise built-in nav is kinda pointless now anyway, but I wonder does its absence make the infotainment screen a bit strange? The live map is the main “tile” on the Home Screen of my CS.
I’m guessing that VW Ireland may have deleted it in order to get the base price down a bit.
Also, if you spec the PP, are you also forced to pay on top of that for the semi slick tyres? The configurator seems to suggest you do.
