steve saxo Posted March 11, 2002 Share Posted March 11, 2002 I have seen a few pics of these on the net in a supra, Were they an optional extra or fitted after a certain year to certain cars, as they look pretty funky, Also I have seen cars with the toyota sat nav in them, If i got a jap car with this it, can you get UK discs for it, without it all being in japanese, ? Also can the screen be connected to another imput I.e tv or anything like that ? Many thanks Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve saxo Posted March 11, 2002 Author Share Posted March 11, 2002 ok, what about the sat nav, any ideas ? Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flipfinger Posted March 11, 2002 Share Posted March 11, 2002 Quote: from Mycroft on 6:52 pm on Mar. 11, 2002[br]'Astra GTE's had digital dashboards hehe' You see its an a-n-a-l-o-g-y, the idea being that Astra GTE's are/were effluent in a tin-can, they had digital dashes, the false but pertinent syllogism (the logical progression) from this statement is 'the GTE is sh1te, it had a digital dash board, the Soarer has a digital dashboard and so in some way the the Soarer is shite. (I'm not going too fast for you am I?) That wasn't my intention at all. I realise after the last few days you think people are persecuting you, but I honestly didn't mean it like that. I haven't ever driven a Soarer, so I don't comment on their ability or qualities. I haven't driven an Astra GTE either, so I don't comment on their ability or qualities, other than the only fact I know about them - they have digital dashboards.

Alex Posted March 11, 2002 Share Posted March 11, 2002 Its a jap unit only....get a UK Nav system instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bradb Posted March 11, 2002 Share Posted March 11, 2002 Apparently its reviewed by 'Branners' is that our Branners? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted March 11, 2002 Share Posted March 11, 2002 Yeah it's our branners.... IF there is a UK version it WILL be more expensive than any off the shelf in-car nav system/hi fi.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Branners Posted March 11, 2002 Share Posted March 11, 2002 Steve - are you referring to the LCD dash bit or have you seen a full digital dash in a mkiv? The LCD bit comes with the tiptronic only and isnt really that flashy. JB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
