Ah, that'll be it then mate, if there is only 6 buttons (3 either side) then it'll be an RCD 510 so hasn't got nav, the unit looks very similar but has less features, i've got one in my mk6.

Tbh mate you'd be as well getting an RNS 510 off ebay for ~£500 cos you'll pay that for any decent aftermarket head unit, you could sell the RCD for £200+ so it doesn't cost as much.

If you want Bluetooth as well, you may be as well to get an RNS315 as fitted to the current Passat.

It has Bluetooth built in as well as DAB. It is also easier to navigate through your ipod/media folders as you scroll through using a knob as opposed to the hit and miss slider on the touch screen of the RCD/RNS510. It also has the option to "Mix All." Something that the 510 can't do either.
Red Mk6 gone replaced with a white Mk7 which has gone too. Green Mk2 here to stay.
