Kenwood DNX525DAB Satnav/audio/etc/etc

[Fuch]

I've got a 521dab in my T5 sportline kombi van as it's factory fit and to be honest it's crap comperd to the bolero vw/skoda stuff ..not very user friendly especially on the move.

Sorry, yes, latest version of the Bolero

That's a pity.

FYI: To supply and fit a new Bolero = £815 which, considering it does so much less than the Kenwood, is no bargain!

 

I may be a bit jaundiced about the Bolero considering that the one supplied with the car failed at 3 years 1 month.

Hence I had to pay 25% of the cost.

The replacement Bolero failed recently at 2 years 1 month with exactly the same fault - and the guarantee ran out at 2 years!

 

So I'm considering getting an aftermarket unit fitted, but perhaps not the Kenwood DNX521DAB?

Not worried about DAB that much at the moment, though had it on the A6, but this might be something to consider in the future.
