I managed to find these two pics and mines like the last one, so from what i can see on most of the pics i found the satnav looks different too there's no radio bottons? actually there's no buttos at all around the satnav screen


no buttons around screen

mine
loads of buttons on the satnav for radio etc.

thanks for th help guys looks like i've got the facelift model and only just too if it is like you said it changed in april, mines registered end of april so build date would of been before then so must be one of the first facelift model's,

so facelift model it is!.... which is great news..........yipppeeee!!!

thanks again guys

cheers jeff

The one with no buttons is some aftermarket screen install. Enjoy!

I've seen loads with the same screen? is it maybe an american option as it seems to be all lefties that have it ????????????

cheers jeff

some more satnav pics with no buttons, i just had a thought it could be just a standard bezel i suppose, was the satnav the same pre-facelift then or was that diff too,

I also just realised (had pics turned off) that your car is silver grey! That colour (along with mystic blue) was only available on facelifted cars.

I have seen that bezel before. I think it was an official "OEM" retrofit satnav from someone like ACS, hence the parts were manufactured to fit in with the dash.

hhhmmm learn something new every day, funny you should say that i looked at a couple of blue ones as well as the silver/grey, but for me silver/grey and red leather is the only option to have, well i would thats what i've got lol
