RCD510 and RNS510 on the way

One shipment of VW HU's on the way, numbers are limited, so book now if you want to be sure of getting your hands on one.

go from this yucky RCD310


to this


RCD510 (OEM passat/Scirocco) vs RCD310 (OEM mk6 gti)
- Original VW HU with security code
- Full sized 400x240 resolution colour touchscreen
- Can take up to 32g SDHC
- In-dash 6 CD changer

Scirocco/Passat CC owners have option to upgrade to the RNS510 which has

- 30gig HDD
- Navigation
- 800x400 resolution screen
- DVD player

The best reason for upgrading to the RCD510 is that thieves dont even look at it, cos its a OEM player, they are only after the JVC/Kenwood type aftermarket players, they have no use for OEM players

Still feel that the VW HU's have not enough functions? Need blutooth, Ipod, usb? No fret, the modshop has ex-stock of the 723V. We have supplied over 30 units to VW Cars (b4 they closed) and FA Wagen

723V spec
- 800x400 touch screen
- Bluetooth
- USB
- SD card slot
- Ipod interface
- GPS running on Windows CE- Igo 8, TomTom etc

2010 Upgrades for Scirocco

Interesting news, there will be no more 200bhp (mk5 engine) scirocco's from production week 45 onwards worldwide. Meaning the msian 1st movers will be getting the last few 200 bhp sciroccos in the world.

Wait abit, and by Q1 2010, all the Rocs will be the new 210bhp (mk6 engine) version with timing chain as well as new aircon controls.

Mk6 vs Scirocco

I was free today, so popped over to Wernes new showroom in PJ, here are my 2 sen about the 2 cars. From the perspective of a Mk5 owner, the mk6 is good, but its not good enuff to make a mk5 owner upgrade, theres nothing special about the mk6. I love the new adaptive suspension (it really works) but besides that its the same as my mk5, in fact, i hate the new aircon controls for the mk6, its fussy and messy looking

The Roc on the other hand, is full of goodies to tempt a mk5 owner. Its new, its exciting looking, its got 4 proper seats to fit 4 adults

what i like about the roc vs my mk5
- It looks amazing, expecially in the classic VW R blue
- RCD510 as standard
- Full MFD + mk6 steering wheel
- Sharfin antenna
- Isofix points at the back
- Adaptive suspension
- Electric seat release ( to make it esier for rear passengers to get in, theres electric adjustment on the top of the drivers seat..very cool)

Things i dun like
- No aluminium pedals
- Rear view mirror ugly

but as u can see..my cons are pretty much nitpicking on small things, overall, i would get the Roc in a heartbeat. The only thing stopping me is the fact that the Golf R is pretty much set to be launched here by Wearnes as well..so will wait and have a look. If they launched the Roc R...i would be putting down my deposit yesterday :mrgreen:

Good news for mk5 owners, my SC in VW, has no less then 3 buyers waiting for used mk5's...and even now he is confident of getting 150-155k for a 07+ unit ...i just hope the demands stays hot till next year....

Possible Demod Sale...


I have been bitten by the Roc bug. Fingers crossed, i want to pass my gti to my wife next year and get myself a Roc, so...im putting the following items out there to see if theres any interest. As i would like my car to be Stage 1 with ori rims b4 my wife drives it.

Forge DV
APR RSC Downpipe with sport cat
18" matt grey Ultralegeras with Yoko AD07
