New sat nav for Skoda Octavia

Skoda has introduced a new and improved satellite navigation system to its Octavia model range.

Called ‘Colombus’, the new unit offers buyers an array of new functions and touch-screen technology. There’s a 6.5-inch bird’s-eye view map display, 30GB hard disc for storing mapping data and music, an auxiliary socket for connecting MP3 players and a DVD player function (when vehicle is stationary).

Prices start at £1,380. The ‘Colombus’ navigation system is available on all Octavias with the exception of base Classic models and can be ordered now from your local Skoda retailer.
