I'm eyeing up RNS510's on eBay at the mo, I miss having a screen to dick around withEnjoy the car. Even more so once it is fixed and you're 100% happy with it. We've had ours for 4 years now doing 16,000miles in that time and it has just clicked over 40,000miles which for a late 2008 car is pretty low. We both love driving the car and haven't got bored of it. Someone recently reversed into ours in a car park so it needed a new headlamp and left hand side grill and bumper respray. We had a Focus ST for 6 days as a courtesy car while it was being repaired, and I can safely say although it was enjoyable, we would certainly not swap our older R32 for it.
It is due its annual service at the end of the month and we use APS Brackley who are very reasonable for costs http://www.autops.co.uk I think even the big service with spark plugs and Haldex filter/oil was about £300 without checking invoices. This year it's just oil & filter.
I recently changed the head unit to a RNS510 DAB, with genuine VW roof mounted GPS/DAB aerial and late spec Bluetooth unit that you can stream music to and integrates with iPhones which I think earlyier bluetooth units don't. It is one of the things I really like about the VW stuff, is how easy lots of later items still integrate. The kids live being able to watch movies on it though I think I have listened to Big Hero 6 about 10 times now!
@MarcJP - Me too. I've bonded with it more than I ever did with the M3 already, even with the wheel bearing issue.
Wife yelled at me earlier for going too quickly round a roundabout
