Thoughts on retrofitting A7 Ancillary heating

[V-Max2xs]

Hi,

Just reading about auxiliary heating system (helps when the engine is cold via a small diesel heater), my question is can it be retrofitted to the A7?

I know it's not a UK option due to the emissions.

Thanks in advance

For the length of time we get cold weather to warrant a Webasto its not financially viable to fit one.

Thanks for the quick reply,

I have a short 6m commute so pre-heating should help prolonging engine life, and defrost the cab especially in the winter months, what sort of cost ~£1000?

€1900 before fitting, totally not worth it in this country. It's not offered as an option for a reason.

WOW... ~£2K (+ install costs) expensive, I'll hire a small child to sit in while it warms up on tick over

You'd be better just getting in and driving and letting it heat up that way. You'll be doing it no good letting it idle.

Tried that this morning, didn't get above 50Deg (commute too short)

That's better than letting it idle

Try buying a small child like v-max suggests?
