If I was going to buy a new XC90. I would not bother with Vovlo RTI and swap the stereo for one of those.

That Sony looks a nice unit but its not cheap; the best price I could find was £920. http://www.google.co.uk/products/cat...CAcQ8wIwADgA#p
I'm sure the nav system would be slicker than the RTI, but I do like the way the RTI unit is totally separate from the stereo in the Volvo set-up. |

Cheapest I saw was £720 for the 6.1" size. They also do a 7" screen size and that is about the £950 mark.

Have been reading this thread with interest and I couldn't agree more with the general discontent regarding the really crude/ineffective built in sat navs. Does the VOC have no clout when it comes to voicing an opinion re the naff facilities such as the integral sat nav ? Let's face it Volvo have got an awful lot right - I guess that's why we all have one - but surely once in a while it wouldn't come amiss to tell them of our collective discontent and where they've got it 'wrong'. I too still have to rely totally on my 5 year old Tom Tom. |

I have the DVD based rti system running 2010 maps and cannot fault it (apart from having no external fixed buttons)
I have used many manufacturer systems over the years and if you think this is bad, try using mercedes comand or bmw's idrive, renault's carminat or the latest effort from land rover. I actually think Volvo's system stands up pretty well
