    Sat Nav

    On mine, gt sport 2014 MY, you go into navigation destination entry screen - press menu when screen display is set to navigation. In the "town / city" field you can enter the first 4 digits of the postcode. Intuitive stuff huh? Agree it is pretty poor - the free app on my iPhone is loads...

    GranTurismo windscreen replacement

    Thanks but nope - euro spares wanted £970 plus vat for oem IIRC, and around £680 plus vat for pattern. Oddly MD was cheaper than anyone else. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

    GranTurismo windscreen replacement

    Latest update - best MD price I can find is £1600 (supply, fitting, vat). Screen alone is £1000............eye watering but not quite as bad as expected. Now to argue the toss with the insurer! Will let you know how it goes. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

Anyway - has anyone had to replace a gt windscreen? I dread to think what it's gonna cost. Obviously keen to...

    New Granturismo Sport owner from surrey

    Thanks for that. I got vague responses when I quizzed on what the sport button does - "makes the noise better" was the general theme. I've driven a Jag xfr for the last couple of years (510bhp / 460lb ft) - similar story with its "dynamic mode". In the dry it tightens up suspension, throttle...

    New Granturismo Sport owner from surrey

    Mrs L reckons I might make it to the first junction........."mirror - signal - sport button - manouvre" Excitement reaching fever pitch - looking like I can pick it up a week early. It could be mine on Sunday! I've been blessed to own many amazing cars over the years - porsche's, m5, and...
