What I'm not sure she will like is the panoramic roof so contingency is to go up to the EX to keep the features I want (auto lights, wipers, dual climate control) but I'm not that fussed about the sat-nav, I'm quite happy with an atlas.

Next sticking point is what they've offered for my Laguna. Admittedly against a dearer car but I've been quoted £1250 more and 1.8% better PCP apr for an Octavia vRS. But I don't think my wife will like the interior....

Go for the Sat Nav.

You'll never know when the route to McDonalds in Calais could come in handy.

Seriously though, you pays your money and you take your choice.

All Space Ships are great Space Ships, it's just that some have more buttons than others.

......and the best one's come in Red!
