did it gone ok then Lee? PITA? Or Easy? storage bin, is it a straight fit under the drivers seat then?

Edde, So you reckon, boot it for first 20miles, then go softly? Ive read soo many dos and donts Ive no idea :( Cheers, Lee.

Yes and Yes.

I bet your gf wears clothes with the labels hanging out the back, just so people can see it. Same with a reg plate, people arent gonna think omg how 04 is that, mines a 54, so is much better etc ;)

So, youve got to go without a car for another 6 weeks, just to get a different plate?!? Just get it now and enjoy it for what it is! Like a reg plate is gonna make it drive differently.

Also its in the dealers interest to get you to wait. Coz they then get an extra "new registration" for 54plates. I dont think it will make much difference to resale value tbh, its a 2004 182 built in July, regardless of when it was regd.

Its not really a few days is it. 1st Sept is new reg day.

The quality will be the same as a decent signal on an FM radio station. Like I said the only downside to that particular unit, is if you set it to 88.5 for example and then drive into an area where a radio station broadcasts on 88.5, you will need to reset the modulator and then tune the head...

Yeah, although its quite a narrow band output. ie you tune your radio to 88.3-88.7 Obviously if a "normal radio station" broadcasts on that freq, you re-tune.

The Origin only passes the GPS sat signal and nothing else to the PDA. The PDA then does its own analysis. Put it this way, the db currently contains a certain amount of info for the cameras/blackspots. Id guess at having to increase the memory by 10 fold if you were to log EVERY speedlimit...

I dont think it IS that easy to add. You would need more of a sat nav system to cover speed limits, rather than the B2. Think about it, your position is a grid reference. So the B2 would have to know ALL roads, the directions they went, and the grid references of the start/end of the...

Exactly! See Cups are far better than anything else on the road...... hell Im sure theyd beat an F15 in a straight line drag as well! ;)

Prolly just a grunt and blank look! :)

I find it strange they arent fitted at build.

Doh, not a very good performance. Its prolly a common part,so like you say, why not hold it in the UK?

Good luck today, keep us informed.

Trouble is, everyones gonna start using VaVaVoom now. Or is it a trademark?

Nice One, better get checking them discounts out and decide what else to buy!

Love the "Big Toe Tanning" suggestion! hehe

Probably a "luck of the draw" thing, either that or the dealer swipes em as they come in. Although I think someone said they got theirs through the post?

Thing is, it only has "reference points" in teh data base, so if youre not in a "known location" how would it tell you the speed limit of very road?!? If you think about it, it must have quite a small memory capacity as all it needs to store is: Coordinates Direction of camera Speed limit

hehe, its a running joke around here that the cup is best at everything. Theres been stories in the driving tales, where cups have beaten ferraris, porsches and the like!

Now theres a fighting statement! lol ;)

Welcome to our home!

Cobra I think someone said?

If you want the lower price, ie discounted. It has to be a "new build" therefore he cant bring one in off the forecourt and use the F&F discount. Hence the courtesy car, because if he ordered one today, you are looking at 1st September (known date, a guy on another forum ordered yesterday).

Most dealers will not place the order until they have the certificate. I would be asking for the following:- 182 as ordered (22% discount) A courtesy car until the 182 is delivered Any less than that and I would be involving solicitors to sue them for breach of contract.
