Oh for gods sakes not another one... joking mate :) welcome.  
How are you finding the Mk5?  Best of the lot, or was the Mk4 better in some areas than the Mk5?

Re: PM: Need more posts mate, something like 10 iirc.

'K, I better get posting then :)
Aye, the V is a million times better than the IV, I've only done 1000 miles so far tho', :) I bought it just @ the right time, traded the IV in to a stealer, I notice the prices are not dropping in the two months since I have had it,

Whats missing though is the media options, with a very basic RDC500, no ipod or usb, doesnt even play mp3s, a bit basic for a 08 motor methinks,

I also had a stock 1.6 FSI of '08, and it had the better media as standard... ach well, thats why I'm here, to PM the user with the MDI kits..... :)

Yeah I originally had the RCD500 and upgraded it to the RNS510 which is a major upgrade. Although have just bought another upgrade as wanted DAB radio so my RNS510 will be off the car this weekend and up for sale :happy2:
