» Will Škoda make a Bluetooth Phone Adapter available?

We are working on introducing a bluetooth kit that caters for charging your mobile phone which is where many bluetooth kits fail. This should be available late spring 2007.

I am looking at changing my octy elegance and get the new L&K has anybody got one? Also would love to have bluetooth handsfree built in, would pay for it extra maybe they should put it in as a option with the satnav thing? Does anybody know if this will be a option for next year hopefully going to get a deal in January

It would certainly make sense.

It's miles behind the times not to IMHO. It's available in the EU which is the parts that we've been installing ourselves.

The units that come through now have a 1Z part number which is an Octavia number.

Yeah i have read your review, think I may have to it! But don't think i have the expertise and wouldn't want to wreck the L&K, it is what i am looking for at the moment goes through my 910 tomtom and its not a great bluetooth unit

Simpsons in Preston can fit the bluetooth kit if you don't want to do it yourself!

[tigs80]

So I could buy the car and take it to simpsons! Ace plan, might just be doing that, you never know it might be in by the time i order late january and with a 12 week built time, as i will be having options on it!

Thanks for the help, I am awaiting a response from skoda uk but don't hold out much hope

You might even find that Simpsons can supply the kit as well as fit it.

Ants is your man - He works at Simpsons if you didn't know.

Maybe even coming to preston to see if I can get a good price for the L&K! Might be worth the trip up to preston!

I'm sure it will be worth the trip!

[tigs80]

I will do that expect a visit in January, would that be about right for order of 08 plate?

8-10 weeks for delivery,so if you want it for the 1st of March, I'd be placing your order this month. But, early Jan will be OK for mid March

[tigs80]

Yeah but it is christmas, unless there are amazing deals going on like 0% interest for three years then I think I am best off waiting until January!!! ;-)

[tigs80]

Just heard from Skoda UK and they do not have any plans of offering it as a option!!! Damn

[VRStu]

Ants to the rescue by the looks of things then.

A silly move by Skoda IMHO - They will lose sales over it I'm sure.

[tigs80]

I think so too! as isn't it a legal requirment to have handsfree and the external units aren't that good! Just PMed Ant to see on costings. VRStu is the new satnav worth it?

[VRStu]

I would if you can afford it - It's a really neat bit of kit.

If you gets Ants to fit you a 1K0 phone unit you'll also be able to use the touch screen to manage your calls and contacts etc.

[tigs80]

tempting may have to pop in, and see if they can do it all before i pick up the l&k! shame though will miss the groovy screen that tells you if you are going to hit something!

[Babs]

it might still have it though?

it's just no one's seen one in a car?

I thought that was the dealio?

[VRStu]

When you see what else it does you'll not be bothered about the reverse parking display.

[tigs80]

lets just hope i can get a good price for my skoda and can afford all these upgrades! As already have a tomtom 910, will be looking at adding it want it all for £19000 with sunroof as well, when is the best time to buy a car

[VRStu]

when is the best time to buy a car

Probably when you've got something of Ant's anatomy in the palm of your hand whilst gently flexing your fingers :rofl:

[tigs80]

Lmao

[tigs80]

may have to try that!!!!

[Ants]

no you chuffin won't!

[Johnwg]
