I noticed that this Fabia has maxi dot!?!?

Is it an option then? Was not when I got mine I am sure?!

It's part of the sat-nav option I believe

Maxi-dot was fitted to cars that were specified with satelite navigation. I'm pretty sure it cannot be used without sat nav, and therefor cannot be retrofitted independantly - which is a shame. :thumbdwn:

No it can be retrofitted, it's just expensive.

Don't shout at me for being stupid...... what is maxi dot??????

The display in the instrument panel...usually available in Ambient models. Our friend Fabia156 has maxidot in his Ambiente 1.4 Fabia.

Really? I'd actually pay

I would pay £250 for it just so I can have my clock back on the speedo

When I bought my Fabia the salesman said I could get maxidot display for just 45 £... then after ordering my car, he had found out that now I could get maxidot if I got the satnav for 1800£. I thought that was too expensive.

I got an Elegance model :P but hey i dont have the maxidot.. its just the normal trip computer that comes with every other fabia that shows the clock, temp, etc..

i think that the maxidot comes only with the models that got the Satnav

best mate has sat-nav in his 55plate vrs and true to say it has maxi-dot and very cool it is too! must say the factory sat nav is expensive but very good.does anybody else have factory sat-nav on here?

£1800 + £200 for the changer iirc, or you cant listen to music CD's.

depends how you do the deal lummox!! it may list at that price but hey you dont want to pay list price especially when it was a cancelled order car!

I've been in your car before you ever saw it And I swear to God he had Maxidot...maybe he removed it? :confused:

Thats weird coz i dont have it.. maybe he removed it but one thing for sure is that i dont have it

No problem to retrofit the Maxi-dot even if you don´t have the Navi. Many guys here did this and it works. Costs 73.- GBP app. here + few buck for coding...

Now you can get the new car with the maxidot and without the navi too. At least here in Czech...

where in the UK can you get it for £73 GBP?

He said approximately 73GBP, So I am guessing the part is that price in CZ?

73GBP = 3000.- Czech Crowns cca

and sorry for duplicity :P

this guy installed maxi dot into his 1.4MPI Fabia

so it's cheaper to import it as it's £250 from a uk dealer.
