New FR ST 1.4 ACT and latest media system just arrvied

[Deputy]

Finally just picked up my FR ST this morning. It was built mid June (ordered April 3) and has the new screen and media system so that's a slight bonus for waiting what has seemed AGES!

Anyway, the first 15 miles have been fine and impressed with 40 mpg even with crawling through city traffic for an hour. I was surprised how often the 2 cylinder mode came on but you can't tell.

Cheers

How does the new screen and media system look?

Congrats bro, glad you got new screen and media system too

Post some pictures if you can and make a video of media system please.

A few basic shots. I've no experience with the last system so can't really compare however this works more like a tablet. Quick to swipe/scroll and pinch to zoom for the maps. Not a bad resolution either (and I normally use an ultra high res Macbook Pro so hate blocky screens!)

Hope you don't mind, I shared your pictures as they were not showing .

 

[Deputy]

No worries - PM how you did it please!

You did it right man, I can see it how you tried to attach it...using the insert image button. I think the reason it's not showing is because you need a minimum number of posts before you can share images. Hope that helps...

When you have enough posts can you put some photos up of the car please.
Also what colour and options did you order?

I've got another 4 weeks or so to wait..

 

[Deputy]

Red, standard FR alloys (I wanted 17" not 18 and would have liked the SE 17" options but no can do for the FR...)
Winter pack
Adaptive cruise
LED interior lights
Convenience pack
Tech pack

I'll post some pics but standard FR from the outside anyway.

(I also didn't get a manual for the new media / nav system, so I've asked the dealer if they are available yet!)

Sounds like a good spec, I really like the ST in red.

I got a separate manual for the new Nav System when I picked up my new ST Cupra at the end of June which shows the bigger screen and Mirrorlink and SMS facilities.

Ive been trying to decide between 18" dynamic upgrades or stick with standard 17" alloys and I prefer the standard ones. Just need to be sure before I order

Hey man, how is the car are you enjoying it???

Post some pictures if you can. I am assuming you went for the standard Nav system included in the Tech pack now. What features are showing on the menus, do you have mirrorlink that works?

Standard nav with tech pack. Mirror link not enabled but my wife's Peugeot has mirror link and it's so unstable it's not worth having. So unless VAG has really improved it for their vehicles I'll not bother enabling it. Would be interested if anyone has any feedback. All the Peugeot reviews say useless unless you have a 3 year old Samsung phone!
