Hi all,
I'm looking at getting the Alpine X701D-A4R.
After reading reviews and seeing what people have wrote on this forum and others it seems to be a great bit of kit. I was pointed in the direction of
Raysmith.co.uk who are selling these for £1599.00
Now there website is currently offering 10% discount with a voucher code so they are available for £1439.10
I was wondering if anyone else would be interested in one of these units then I will contact the supplier and ask if there would be any further discounts available.

Is this exclusively an A4 B8 headunit?

I believe it fits the A4, A5 and Q5.

What if the car has controls near the gear stick, not on the dash?

From the website;
Alpine premium Infotainment system designed exclusively for the A4 (Model Year 2007-2015) and A5 (Model Year 2007-2016). Part of the rapidly growing line of Alpine Style vehicle-specific systems, the X701D-A4R gives Audi owners access to the latest media compatibility, cutting-edge navigation technology and Alpine’s audiophile sound quality. All system components are designed to fit perfectly in existing installation locations and integrate fully with the vehicle’s electronic systems.

That unit is more of a replacement for concert & symphony spec cars, and if you look at the installation instructions, there is no MOST connector on the head unit so on MMI 2G or 3G cars you would also have to replace the AMP (depending on your sound system) & extend the aerial cables to the front of the car. There is also no interface on that system to use the controls around the gear stick. You would also have to remove the MOST based gateway and fit the can based version.

If you're running the GB on VWAF can you please update this thread with the details - we don't really like cross posting, it means our members have to sign up to another forum to post/be a part of it and it makes it more difficult to keep tabs on what's going on.

thanks :)
