Hi All,
I live in Sydney, Australia and this is my first forum post after having bought a 2018 Golf Alltrack Premium (Petrol) 6 days ago.
It is the perfect fit for me after driving a Subaru Outback for 19 years. The new Outbacks are supersized and drive like a barge so this is about the size of my old Outback and just fits into my garage.
I was impressed by all the new technology in the car and its the first time I've had an in-car navigation system. However, to my surprise, it doesn't have speed/red light and school zone camera alerts that my friends have in their older Japanese cars.
The local dealer could offer no solution to getting these alerts and suggested I buy a portable nav system for that purpose which is embarrassing and I feel unnecessary on a AUD$45K+ car.
Does anyone have an Australian solution that will alert me to these insidious cash grabbing camera devices. I'm not a rev-head, but with a turbo-charged engine under the bonnet even the most careful driver can slip up and get caught going over the 50 and 60kph limits on Sydney roads.
Cheers
