All,

That question will be different for everyone.  I think a big Nav screen with good resolution and graphics really makes the car look modern and smart.  A small screen or no screen to me looks second rate.  Is it value for money?  No.  It's a huge sum for what it is.  Is it worth it?  Up to you.

A lot of guys will swear to you it's pointless and the basic one is fine or why you even need one at all.  For them they don't want it so they keep the money.  If you want it then their arguments are meaningless. It's personal preference.

If I could have justified the extra grand then I would have added it just to have it - but then you can say that about all options!  Also depends on how often you need sat Nav - once in a blue moon for me so didn't spec the bigger screen and got the normal Nav.  Bigger screen does look the nuts though!

Yeah, as with most options there is no right or wrong answer.  For me,  this is the only option I have a regret that I did not spec but found it was too difficult to justify the cost especially as I didn't give a rats about the sat nav - I just had a hankering for the bigger screen and resolution bump.

It was the first luxury option on my list. It is very very expensive considering I've hardly used the sat nav and probably will continue to hardly use it. However, I so wanted the bigger screen as it just integrates so well into the car and looks fantastic  :smiley:

I wish there was countryside like that near Cambridgeshire.  Roads are so crowded around here and to get anywhere I have to brave the A14 with its grid lock and average speed cameras. :sick:  I like to get on the back roads and have a blast between the villages.  Can be a bit unnerving though as the roads are fairly narrow with high hedges and you can suddenly find a tractor in the middle of the road. :shocked: You get to test the brakes a fair bit though!

Those back roads sound like where I live in Cornwall.  I am surrounded by A & B Roads as well as many country lanes hardly wider than a car.  awesome stuff to test the car on a weekend drive to the beach and along coastal roads.  I cannot wait for my car....   When VW decide to finish building it that is  :laugh:
