What do people think of the RNS510??

Me I dont rate it, its to fiddley when you useing the sat nav!! :sad:

I thought it was a lot of money at first (even second hand) but to be honest I keep finding features that make me glad I forked out for it.

I agree the navigation is fiddly and at times I find it hard to find a POI that I know is in the unit but that is probably user error.

My only gripe is I couldn't find a road when I was taking my son to his friends despite having the postcode and road name, the unit just couldn't find it. I put it down to it being a reasonably new housing estate. So I set off just using the 4 digit postcode to get me to the location at least.  I found the road eventually no thanks to the head unit. While I was there I selected NAV on the unit and it was able to tell me what road I was in!!!! Yet I still couldn't find it by searching!!!

Weird.

I agreed the RNS 510 sat nav cost ridiculous amount of money but my job involves visiting a lot of unfamiliar place in a short space of time. Its a no brainer for me. I find the unit reasonablely accurate when compare with a Porsche PCM 3. The fact you enter the postcode via touchscreen is miles better than an Audi, Merc or BMW. As mention above, there are occasions when the unit let you down but you will find the portable ones which I also bring along to work also struggle to find those addresses! Just like xenons, depends on what you use the GTI for, it a total waste of money to one but absolute must for others!
