It doesn't have the correct aerial/antenna connections on the back, it has 2 SD card slots, the buttons have different functions written on them, and it looks like some chav made it in a shed in S****horpe.  :laugh:

Just because you think you know something, doesn't make you an expert if you've just read it on the internet, y'know.

Loads of these copies knocking about unfortunately. Just make sure you get the right code RNS510 for your year of car, somebody more knowledgeable on here might be able to advise you better but I know they change depending on the year.
