whilst i have this R32 courtesy car I can quite happily say the one thing i miss is the RNS510... no need for tom tom, cd's flying round the car, or quite cheap look of the std stereo.... which tbh you only really realise once you have had it.

I would happily swap the cruise, mfsw, parking sensors, dsg and leather just for the 510

RNS510 does have DVD playback. It also has an SD card slot, I think it has a provision for Bluetooth?

Haven't seen an aftermarket unit yet scouring the net that looks half as good as the RNS510... welcome and open for suggestions though! Any recommendations?

Yes you can add a Bluetooth adaptor but they cost over £300! and on top of the £700+ you have already paid makes it a very dear do.

The Pioneer Avic F700BT or F900BT can be picked up for half of that price! :smiley:

Like I said, I welcome suggestions! That Pioneer looks very nice - how well does it integrate with the highline MFD?

I have not seen it in the flesh, but having seen pics I agree - most other after market units look cheap in comparison.... the RNS looks like a lovely bit of kit
