New Standard Audio - walterwindbag - 13-07-2015 12:02pm
I popped into the stealer on Saturday to fine tune my order (read spend more money).
I was contemplating upgrading my MY16 order to the old MY15 Audio Spec. My concern was that the loss of the subwoofer, the HDD, the CD and half the speakers would constitute a definite downgrade and I wanted to upgrade to the old 380w system.
She said don't bother! She drove the new spec last week and unless I was a HiFi freak or I definitely needed a CD facility I should save my money. She said she thought the whole Audio/HMI system was so much better than the current one she much prefers it.
So I asked her about the card-based GPS compared to the current HDD system and again she said forget it. The new system didn't lead her astray as much as the old one. She was a real enthusiast for the new standard spec.
I was absolutely gob-smacked
So I celebrated by adding on auto main-beam lights and Advanced Driveline, neither of which were available in March. And I deleted the power-fold mirrors and front fogs from my original order as these are now part of the new spec for SE Tech anyway.
It's all good.

Hey Walt,
I can understand you maybe getting a little confused in your old age fella..................Are you sure you went to a JLR dealer?.............If you did, she's no good at her job. If you didn't, I'll expect to see pic's of your new Skoda Yetti (or similar) on here in November

SE Tech? Is that a new model to replace Pure Tech? Bet the price has gone up loads.

Pretty much the same price but loads more kit eg Xenons/Electric seats etc Just a down grade on the crap satnav system if that is possible!
