Nice car mate. Do yourself a favour and dont get the RCD 510. Wait till the car arrives and get the retrofit RNS 510 from Hazydayz. I got a retro fitted one which was reconditioned for not much more than the factory RCD 510. Its the best toy in the car and indistinguishable from the factory unit. It came with the latest firmware and they will even put the speed camra locations on it for you, and no I dont work for them. Car will be worth more at resale too so its ultimately a no cost upgrade! Also I had the flat tyre indicator on a Mk5 R32. Complete waste of time. Never used it once in 2 years. save your cash.

I agree with the above. I spec'd the RCD510 with mine and have just had the RNS510 fitted. I wished I'd listened to those that said get the std RCD310 and upgrade later

The thing is, you need to spec the RCD510 if you want the camera like I had to and then upgrade to the RNS510. However if the camera is of no interest then I agree go for the base stereo.

Anyone know what realistically the RCD510's are going for as I still have mine sitting about?
