SH1T
Doesn't do full postcodes.
Will get you there though in a fashion. Just need the latest maps possible.
If you can get the mk2 of the unit. You can use bigger memory cards for music. You will need these because to use the sat nav you need the sat nav disc in the only cd slot.
Only bonus is it looks better.

That is the mk2 isn't it? I've got mk1 RNSE in mine its the original one its different to that, no gloss screen surround and the volume & main scroll aren't chrome/silver.
Mine is particularly bad when re-directing because of traffic, like it took us off the Brussels ring road right through the centre of the city
I thought the mk2 had the different satnav software than the mk1

Nope, they're exactly the same from what I believe. Ive got a Mk2 and its just 5 digit post code.
Its got latest firmware and 2012 maps I think. But for cheap you can get latest maps of the bay for cheap enough. Its not really good and lets the car down, but I guess the RNSE is closing in on ten year old tech.

They're different, put them side by side and use them both to understand how different they are. Screen quality will jump out a mile.
Tom, I've got pics to post up in a bit, just waiting for dinner to cook then I'll fire up the laptop.

It is a pretty nice unit. When Ross hooked up his AppleTv in his car and used it for mirroring his iPhone it really showed the superior quality of the screen.
I was going for the TTS engine cover, but the intake is a lot different, and I'm still using my MAF sensor in the cover for a few more weeks yet until the new intake is fitted, I've got enough noise at the rear but nothin up front

The first layer of paint went on quite shit, so we took the brake cleaner to it and got it off straight away, but it put dribbles behind the masking and dried there. It took me 3 hours to clean it up today;
Little bit more to do tomorrow and then colour restore the black to finish it off, and job done.

Looks well that Dom. I think the trim restorer will bring that up perfect

Oh! Thank you

There's no easy way to say this, but the S3 returned to Germany and died. After chasing 160mph Porsche runs, the next morning it suffered massive engine failure. The valves said hello to the piston.

SaxP banter aside, that's really shitty luck and no fun at all, you must be pretty sick.
Is it definitely valve / piston damage and terminal?
What's the score with getting a car home from the ring? Do you literally just ring Blackie and tempt him with meaty pies?
