Toyota Touch & Go

tombrown

I bought a Yaris last year and while it came with the Toyota touch system (7" touch screen, BT etc) I declined the Sat Nav upgrade (Tounch & Go) as it was an extra €950.

When I took it in for a service recently I asked how much it would cot to upgrade & found out is now considerably cheaper (€550)

Seriously considering it. I know I can get as good with a separate TomTom or similar, but I would really like an integrated solution. I dont spend on flash fast cars (as you can guess), but I like the idea of that little bit extra on the interior.

Do I need sat nav? Probably not more than 2-3 times per year, but irrationally I want it

Has anyone who has had any experience of the sat nav system provide a bit of feedback on how good it is?

Also the folks in the shop told me it was reduced to €750 about 6 months ago, and is now at a special price of €550 for at least 2 months. They didn't think it would go any lower ... but they would say that. I'm wondering if it is worth taking the risk of waiting another few months for a further drop?

If you just need it to have it - buy.

If you want to use it frequently - be aware that all built-in satnavs get maps updated at most once a year, and you have to pay for it a pile of money each time.

But it's your money after all, so do what you want. :cool:

That's not outrageous, and if it makes you like the car more, and you get some use out of it - then it's value



As an aside, I'd love to have been in the meeting where they decided to call it that.

Why not spend the 550 on a integrated new DVD/TV/App radio thingy box....

This is original equipment stuff to be fair and uses the existing touch screen system/camera/wheel controls etc
