If the car has satnav does that mean it has the better speakers?

its not always the case. iv herd that the radio 5 which is the basic radio came with the sound pack... fortunately for me my forfour is pre-wired for the sound pack, but it didn't come with rear speakers, sub and tweeters, but if wired the rear speakers and sub in

depends how well you know the dealer and what sort of warranty they are offering.....

we know that strike's car (previously big dunc's) has been well looked after and there is 3 years of history of the car on this site.......

sat nav is the top head unit and looks lovely but not sure on how it performs as a satnav - i'd still use tomtom or a phone app for nav.

the sounds system on the BRAB is superb any way and you should have the 7 speaker system (2 front, 2 rear, 2 tweeters in door a pillars and 1 sub under passenger seat)

are you after silver or black??

Hi and welcome from me :) like jj said strike car is good well known in the community and me personally i know him to keep his cars well (always clean n tip top) but having said that please follow your own instinct and desire as to where u buy.

Mod wise get a remap and a remap even as standard without any mods from u, it will see 200bhp n lots of smile.
If u wanna go wild then do as CG says  :)

Having the inbuilt SatNav is no indication that it has the Premium Sound system.
As otheres have said, the Satnav is nothing to write home about....in fact it's
a bit naff. I'd rather have a TomTom to be honest.

I do like the black to be honest. I would like to black out the rear and front lights do like that.
